FLEETDRIVE industry for over 50 years and Healthy Heads offered a great opportunity for the business to better assist its own people and to give back to a sector that is the backbone of Australian industry. In any given financial year, Pickles sells over 30,000 trucks and trailers to buyers across Australia and has seen firsthand the importance of industry operators. From the one-truck owneroperator to the corporate line-haul fleets, every operator plays an important part in keeping our country moving.
Resources for road transport, warehousing, and logistics operators
For those riding the transport and logistics career path, long hours on lonely roads or isolation within warehouse walls can take a toll. Isolation is a natural consequence of the industry and one that can severely impact mental and physical health. Having this awareness of the impacts of the job is crucial to establishing tools and resources that help support workers and assist with resilience building in the industry.
Healthy Heads has spent half a decade developing a wide range of resources and awareness tools that are designed to positively assist everyone involved in these industries. They offer crucial information and initiatives that can help a workplace build a wellbeing plan or to create a bridge between individual operators and the wider community. These resources include:
Toolbox Talks
Healthy Heads created Toolbox Talks, which are similar to safety shares with information and facts that are ready to share with a team as part of your regular daily team huddles. These talks are about promoting healthy and supportive environments and feature industry-specific wellness initiatives.
Healthy Heads in Trucks & Sheds Road Show
The Healthy Heads Road Show offers over 70 events nationally each year and is how Healthy Heads gets out and meets with the people who keep the industry moving. These events provide useful information, support, face-to-face connection, health checks and many resources for wellness.
