Right now, support for workers is inconsistent. Whether someone receives help often depends on the contractor. The Mindflow Charter sets a clear benchmark, giving local authorities and clients a way to embed mental health expectations from the start. ![Mindflow Charter](https://746800.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/746800/hubfs/Mindflow%20Charter.png?width=100&height=115&name=Mindflow%20Charter.png) ![Men in High Visibility Jackets having a conversation in an old building](https://mindflow.charity/hs-fs/hubfs/Photography/contact-hero.jpg?width=2490&height=1666&name=contact-hero.jpg) ## Built around 10 principles The Mindflow Charter outlines 10 key areas every site should address — from leadership accountability and psychological safety to equal access and early intervention. These principles are grounded in both lived experience and industry consultation. ![2](https://mindflow.charity/hs-fs/hubfs/Mindflow%20shirts/2.webp?width=928&height=928&name=2.webp) ###### A written mental health and wellbeing policy ![3](https://mindflow.charity/hs-fs/hubfs/Mindflow%20shirts/3.webp?width=928&height=928&name=3.webp) ###### Clear ownership and governance ![4](https://mindflow.charity/hs-fs/hubfs/Mindflow%20shirts/4.webp?width=928&height=928&name=4.webp) ###### Equal access to mental health support impact ![5](https://mindflow.charity/hs-fs/hubfs/Mindflow%20shirts/5.webp?width=928&height=928&name=5.webp) ###### Psychological safety management ![6](https://mindflow.charity/hs-fs/hubfs/Mindflow%20shirts/6.webp?width=928&height=927&name=6.webp) ###### Leadership training and support ![7](https://mindflow.charity/hs-fs/hubfs/Mindflow%20shirts/7.webp?width=928&height=927&name=7.webp) ###### Team awareness and education ![8](https://mindflow.charity/hs-fs/hubfs/Mindflow%20shirts/8.webp?width=928&height=927&name=8.webp) ###### Conflict resolution and fair practices ![9](https://mindflow.charity/hs-fs/hubfs/Mindflow%20shirts/9.webp?width=928&height=927&name=9.webp) ###### Measurable positive impact ![10](https://mindflow.charity/hs-fs/hubfs/Mindflow%20shirts/10.webp?width=928&height=927&name=10.webp) ###### Communication and stakeholder engagement ![thumbnail_11](https://mindflow.charity/hs-fs/hubfs/Mindflow%20shirts/thumbnail_11.webp?width=928&height=928&name=thumbnail_11.webp) ###### Engagement with preventive services ## Why it matters Mental health in construction can no longer be left to chance or goodwill. Every working day, two construction workers take their own lives. The industry has one of the highest suicide rates in the UK, a stark reminder that support must be standard, not optional. By adopting the Mindflow Charter, organisations show they are serious about supporting their workforce and meeting the growing expectations of clients, regulators, and their own people.
