The latest State of Australia’s Safety Net report from the Council of Australian Life Insurers (CALI) reveals a growing challenge: more Australians than ever before are leaving the workforce due to mental ill health.

The data makes one thing clear: workplaces have a role to play in ensuring Australian workers stay well and keep working!

SuperFriend was proud to contribute the report's workplace mental health data and insights based on our Indicators of a Thriving Workplace.

If workplaces understand the areas that need to be strengthened in their workforce, we can collectively protect the health and livelihood of more Australians — while reinforcing the sustainability of the safety net we provide.

🚛 Keeping Transport Safe, Strong & Human 💛

“Everything you touch, eat, wear, or build is available because someone like me sat behind the wheel for 12 hours straight.”

That reminder from a long-haul driver years ago still shapes how we think about the transport industry, it’s not just about moving freight, it’s about moving life.

Healthy Heads in Trucks & Sheds, in partnership with SuperFriend, hosted the Healthy Heads Industry Forum, in support of mental health, safety and well being in the transport sector, bringing together drivers, site managers, and technical experts to explore what’s working, what’s not, and what it will take to build safer, more mentally healthy, and connected workplaces.

We heard honest conversations about:
💬 Long hours, fatigue, and family strain
💬 Feeling forgotten or isolated on the road
💬 Limited access to healthy food, rest stops, and medical care
💬 Anxiety about automation and job insecurity

But we also heard solutions, and hope:
✅ Real human connection, not just policy
✅ Better communication and support for workers
✅ Modern driver hubs with care, food, and dignity
✅ Leadership that listens, values, and acts

SuperFriend is proud to be a key sponsor of the upcoming at Work Summit, where this year’s theme, “Wellbeing: The Power Behind High Performance”, couldn’t resonate more strongly with us.

At SuperFriend, we believe that wellbeing isn’t just an add-on to success, it’s the foundation of it. Thriving teams perform better, stay engaged longer, and create healthier, more productive workplaces.

That’s why we’re so pleased to be part of this important conversation with leaders, practitioners, and change-makers who share our belief: there is no high performance without wellbeing.

Throughout the event, we’ll be showcasing our expertise and data-driven insights from the Indicators of a Thriving Workplace, Australia’s most comprehensive measure of workplace mental health and wellbeing. These insights are helping organisations across the country understand what really drives thriving workplaces, and how to build them.

We’re also hosting an interactive workshop on how to apply our evidence-informed Five Domains Framework in your workplace. You’ll walk away with practical strategies and a deeper understanding of how to use meaningful data to create a truly thriving workplace culture.0

Join us as we explore the powerful link between wellbeing and performance, and how we can all create workplaces where people, and performance, thrive together.
