Health and wellbeing

Your health is our priority. We're committed to caring for our strong, healthy and resilient workforce.

At AFP, we'll help you look after yourself.

We want our people to be strong, healthy and resilient – both physically and mentally.

Online information on health and wellbeing can feel overwhelming. But here, you'll have access to genuine industry experts who understand the diversity of our work.

Some of our jobs have specific fitness requirements. We will help you meet them.

We want you to be healthy

From free flu shots to engaging with specialist mental health clinicians. We want you to be healthy and performing your best.

You'll have access to our well-equipped gyms, allowing you to stay fit and healthy.

We developed an innovative health capacity in SHIELD. The program enables us to:

  • understand the drivers of a healthy and resilient workforce
  • identify and manage workplace health risks
  • support our workforce through prevention, early intervention, rehabilitation and recovery.

SHIELD includes doctors, nurses, rehabilitation case managers, physical services and mental health clinicians who understand we are not like any other organisation.

We also look after your mental health by providing a free, confidential, professional counselling service. 

You can access this through our Employee Assistance Program (EAP). You, your partner and dependents can use the EAP to manage personal and work issues.
