Our number one priority is the health and well-being of our people.
We believe achieving our business objectives relies on our employees feeling happy, healthy and supported to reach their full potential.
Our dedicated wellbeing team supports employee health and wellbeing across the full spectrum of health services, while our health and wellbeing program strengthens our focus on supporting our people by providing end-to-end services to suit individualised needs.

Mental health
MinRes considers mental health as important as physical health and critical to employee engagement and productivity.
With over 80% of our employees working remotely across our operational sites, our people and their families can face challenges to their mental health.
Our Mental Health Framework helps guide MinRes' vision to be a recognised employer of choice, prioritising positive mental health and wellbeing alongside physical health and safety.
The development of MinRes’ mental health strategy, programs and initiatives is guided by our mental health services team who are known as the Mind Matters team. This team oversee’s an industry first in-house education model, and an onsite counselling team, as well as access to an Employee Assistance Program providing confidential professional counselling and support to employees and their families.
As the most recent addition to a growing Wellbeing team, our new Mind Matters Team includes clinical psychologists, educators, and counsellors at MinRes headquarters, counsellors at MinRes operating sites and roving counsellors for CSI client sites.
