The Working Mind for the Trades

The Working Mind for the Trades

This episode of the IHSA Safety Podcast discusses mental health in high-risk workplaces, as well as the partnership between IHSA and Opening Minds, a division of the Mental Health Commission of Canada, to deliver a new training program, The Working Mind for the Trades. Joining in the conversation are Charles Boyer and Derek Baranowski from the Mental Health Commission of Canada and IHSA's Kathy Martin, as they emphasize the importance of addressing mental health in the workplace.

The Working Mind program focuses on raising awareness and encouraging dialogue about mental health to reduce stigma, as well as equipping employees with coping skills when faced with challenges. The program was adapted from the original program by Opening Minds and customized to resonate more with the industries IHSA serves—construction, transportation, and electrical utilities.

There are two versions of the program: one for workers and the other for management. Both versions have identical first three modules, which address barriers to having conversations on mental health, monitoring and managing mental health in the workplace, and resilience strategies. The management version has a fourth module dedicated to the leadership team to help them incorporate the learning goals from previous modules into their leadership style.

Kathy highlights that the program is for everyone, and the real learning takes place during group discussions and interaction throughout the course. Derek discusses the benefits of the program, emphasizing that maintaining our mental health should be a normal part of our life that should be treated with the same priority as other areas.
