MATES Hoodie
When you’re in lockdown there is not much more exciting than receiving some goodies in the mail. Especially, if like us, you are in Auckland with no retail therapy on offer.
Secure yourself a limited-edition MATES in Construction ‘TAKE 10 Seconds of Courage for a MATE’ hoodie. These hoodies are not only on trend, but they will remind everyone around you, that we can all take those 10 seconds of courage and ask a MATE if they really are okay.
Join Lance and the MATES community and wear your hoodie with pride.
managing your emotional responses
The Covid Tracer App is here to protect us, and notify us if we have been in close contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19.
If you receive an alert, it’s important that you follow the advice within the alert. As we get use to these alerts coming through it can make us feel anxious, so the team has created some videos to help us recognise the emotions that could crop up and also how we can manage those emotions.

MATES in Construction New Zealand
The MATES programme builds and strengthens communities in the workplace and across the industry – helping our people to be supportive and provide an environment that encourages positive wellbeing.
The impact of this community-based approach then goes beyond the workplace and into our every-day lives.
MATES engage with workers through on-site training and providing those identified as at risk with case management support that connects them to suitable professional support. MATES Field Officers are trained in suicide intervention skills and have experience with the Building and Construction Industry. This allows them to engage easily with the workers on site.
