About WorkWell
WorkWell is part of WorkSafe Victoria.
The program was launched in 2017 in response to a rise in mental injury claims. WorkWell's mission is to influence positive change in psychological health and safety for Victorian workplaces. We do this by investing in partnerships, networks, tools and resources for sustainable system level change.
About the Communities of Practice
Inspired by previous WorkWell Learning Networks, the Communities of Practice will take a collaborative partnership approach to help Victorian business leaders to create psychologically healthy and safe workplaces.
The Communities of Practice will support workplace leaders to collaborate with peers and discuss challenges and identify practical solutions to prevent mental injury in their industry. They will create accessible, practical tools and resources to improve the psychosocial safety climate (PSC) within Victorian workplaces.
Each Community of Practice will have one organisation lead a consortium of partners, to collaboratively design and deliver the Community of Practice, focusing on a priority industry.
Priority industries include:
- public administration and safety
- construction
- education
- healthcare and social assistance
- transport, postal and warehousing
- manufacturing
- wholesale trade.
The WorkWell Communities of Practice tender opportunity has now closed. Announcements about the successful tenders will be made in 2025.
