From physical health to mental health, men face a range of health challenges that need to be addressed to have our workplace communities’ function to their fullest potential.
November is the perfect time as the month sees several important health awareness events:
- Movember – prostate cancer
- International Men’s Day, 19th
- World Diabetes Day, 14th
- Lung Health Awareness Month
International Men’s Day 2022
This year's theme in Australia is “Celebrating Mateship”. Mateship is an enduring part of the Australian culture, especially for men. A solid and authentic network of mates can not only protect men's mental health and make them happier, research shows it helps them live longer too.
Get involved and help your male workforce live longer, better, and healthier lives!
Mateship and Men’s Health Module
Help recognize and celebrate the importance of Mateship with our Men’s Health Module this November. The module provides a dedicated health and wellbeing resource for men to be inspired to be, stronger mentally and physically, and live a more fulfilling life.
