Pino Monaco, HIACF Chairman says, “It is because of the generosity of HIA members that we’ve been able to commit $1 Million to Beyond Blue since 2014. The funds donated to Beyond Blue through the partnership have funded a world first National Suicide Prevention Research Project and, more recently, the Beyond Blue Support Service.
“The disturbing reality is that construction workers are more than twice as likely to take their own life as others in the community.
“Support comes at a time where millions of people across the country, including HIA members, are feeling the impacts of the pandemic. For Beyond Blue, the average monthly demand for services has increased 30 per cent during the pandemic.
“Managing a business before, during and after a pandemic can cause considerable stress for people and we want to ensure that support is there for them should they need it,” Pino added.
Beyond Blue Deputy Chair Kate Carnell AO said, “The ability of the HIA Charitable Foundation to raise this level of funding with the HIA members is exceptional. It really is a case of the industry coming together to look after one another in the spirit of mateship.”
“At Beyond Blue, we really appreciate the efforts of the Foundation and its connection with HIA to promote and protect mental wellbeing in the home building industry. We look forward to continuing our work with the HIA Charitable Foundation in continuing to support the mental health of our communities together.”
Pino concluded, “It’s been an extraordinarily worthwhile partnership that has developed between Beyond Blue and the Foundation and I will certainly be advocating that it continue for a long time. The need for mental health support is real and growing. HIA members are to be congratulated for recognising this need and responding in such a practical way”.
HIA Budget Submission demands action on housing to boost industry confidence
HIA has lodged its 2026-2027 Federal Pre-Budget Submission (Submission) in the lead up to the Budget to be handed down by Treasurer Jim Chalmers in May.
Approvals fall in December, but 2025 finishes on a high note
“The volume of new dwellings approved for construction decreased by 14.9 per cent in the month of December 2025 to 15,540,” stated HIA Chief Economist Tim Reardon
Housing industry welcomes focus on red tape reduction
The Housing Industry Association (HIA) has welcomed the release of a discussion paper by the Federal Liberal Party to put front and centre on the agenda deregulation and a reduction of red tape to boost industry productivity.
Blanket work from home mandates unworkable for builders
“The Housing Industry Association (HIA) is calling for a proposed Federal Bill creating a legislated right to work from home to be rejected, as it would only add further regulatory pressure on small building businesses already struggling with rising costs and labour shortages,” Senior Executive Director Compliance & Workplace Relations, Stuart Collins said today.
