About the MARS Program and

our grants.

What is the MARS Program?

The Mental Awareness, Respect and Safety (MARS) Program is an inter-agency government initiative that aims to improve the health, safety and wellbeing of workers and others in the mining industry.

The program has three focus areas:

  • Creating mentally healthy workplaces.
  • Building a culture of safety and respect.
  • Preparing for workplace safety in future mining.
