Often, there is a mix of accreditations on the roster for EAP providers.  

Usually it's a mix of counsellors, social workers and psychologists who make up the professionals who will be managing the health issues of your workforce.

It is important to note that there is no legal requirement for specific accreditation to provide EAP services in Australia. 

In October, Health for Work attended the Western Australia Mining Exhibition, a collective showcase of the most innovative and forward thinking products and solutions available to the mining industry in 2025.

The 2 day event, held at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre, attracted more than 5,500 from across the world of mining, with a variety of professionals from across the sector. In attendance were mine owners and operators, experts from tech, government and service providers who brush up against the industry and deliver solutions to fix some of the biggest challenges. 

On the second day of the event, our BDM - Joe Saunderson, had the opportunity to address a collective of industry professionals from the main stage. The topic was centered around building safer, smarter mines, how we can look to prioritise people, utilise new technology and ensure productivity is not compromised.
