Statement of problem: There is international momentum to improve workplace mental health (e.g. OECD 2014; 2015) through integrated strategies that incorporate primary prevention as well as promoting positive approaches and supporting individuals (LaMontagne et al., 2014; Page et al., 2014; Reavley et al., 2014). Clear guidance is needed at a national level on translating the evidence base into priorities for action. This project provided an opportunity for researchers, policy makers and practitioners to collaboratively identify a set of priorities for the effective management of employee wellbeing in an era of high demands and scarce resources. The goal of the project was to produce a national Action Plan for workplace mental health in Australia, collectively authored by participants in a white paper format – a solutions-focused position paper that succinctly captures a problem and proposes a range of concrete actions.
