Supporting healthier workforces across the Defence industry

Australia’s Defence capability relies on more than technology, infrastructure and expertise. It relies on the people behind it — and supporting their health and wellbeing is an important part of building a strong, engaged workforce.

Defence Health has more than 70 years’ experience supporting the Defence community and brings a deep understanding of Defence life, veterans and Defence industry workforces. As a not-for-profit health fund dedicated to the Defence community, Defence Health reinvests in the health of its members.

For Defence industry employers, this expertise can translate into practical support for both organisations and their people. Defence Health offers flexible hospital and extras cover options, veteran support, mental health and wellbeing support, preventative health programs and health education.

Partnership opportunities can also include workforce wellbeing initiatives, health education and awareness programs, veteran transition support, tailored employee communications and scalable partnership solutions. Dedicated partnership support and regular workforce engagement insights help organisations build an ongoing approach to employee health and wellbeing.

For employers competing for talent, investing in meaningful health and wellbeing benefits can strengthen the employee value proposition while helping employees and their families access support when they need it. Defence Health also brings an understanding of veteran healthcare needs, DVA pathways and the challenges associated with transitioning into civilian employment.
