Five steps to make your mental health agenda live in offshore, renewables, maritime, and other safety-critical workplaces.

This guide is for the person who has been asked, or has decided, to act. It sets out a practical, step-by-step framework built for the real conditions of high-risk industries, drawing on WHO guidelines, Gard's Crew Claims Report 2025, and Maersk Training's experience delivering Mental Health First Aid globally.
15% of working-age adults are estimated to have a mental disorder at any given time (WHO/ILO, 2022)
26% of workers in safety-critical roles reported symptoms of depression (Gard Crew Wellbeing Survey, 2024)
5% of workers seek professional counselling when struggling. Your peer support network is the real front line.

Most organisations have had the conversation. The harder part is knowing where to start and how to build something that lasts.
This one-hour live panel brings together senior HR and safety leaders from maritime, offshore and renewables to share what the journey has actually looked like. The resistance. The structures that helped. The moments that made it real.
No theory. No statistics you have already seen. Just an honest conversation about what works.

Our People & Performance team works with organisations across safety-critical industries to design and deliver mental health programmes that are practical, evidence-based, and built to last. Our Mental Health First Aid courses run as open enrolment or in-house delivery, anywhere in the world.
