The Western Australian Government is continuing to support the health and wellbeing of workers across the State.

Funding has been made available to support organisations to develop and deliver practical initiatives, tools and support for workers across all industries.

The Mentally Healthy Workplaces Grant Program and the Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Program Support Fund provide funding for initiatives that strengthen prevention, early support, capability building and safer workplace cultures.

These programs form part of the Western Australian Government’s broader commitment to improving mental health outcomes, reducing harm associated with psychosocial risks, and supporting suicide prevention in workplaces and across the community.

The programs are delivered by the Department of Local Government, Industry Regulation and Safety - WorkSafe in collaboration with the Mental Health Commission.

About the Mentally Healthy Workplaces Grant Program

The Mentally Healthy Workplaces Grant Program provides grant funding for initiatives that improve the understanding and management of psychosocial hazards in Western Australian workplaces.

The program supports practical tools, training and resources that help workplaces understand their work health and safety duties, identify psychosocial hazards, assess risks and prevent psychological harm.

This program supports the Western Australian Government’s commitment to improving workplace mental health and reducing harm from psychosocial risks.

Applications for stage one of the Mentally Healthy Workplaces Grant Program closed on 12 May 2026. 

The stage one assessment and decision-making process has now been completed. Applicants who were not successful for stage one funding are being contacted directly and advised of the outcome of their application.

Successful stage one grant recipients will be announced by the Minister for Industrial Relations in the coming weeks.

Stage two of the program is scheduled to open in 2027. If you would like to receive notifications specifically about stage two, please email WHSGrants@lgirs.wa.gov.au and ask to be added to the stage two notification list.
