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.
