Acorn Life Path

For FIFO & Resource Workers, both Singles and Families

Stress-Free Money, Stronger Relationships, Plan the FIFO Lifestyle, Happier Life

If you are a resource industry worker then itís obvious you work hard and often make big sacrifices to keep the money flowing in. At times it can be hard to maintain a strong relationship and have a solid plan for what you want to achieve in your life.

There is usually good money to be made and it can seem that the more you make, the more that is spent and you may feel like youíre not getting ahead financially like you had expected.

This type of stress can build up and affect your quality of life and your even your work. One of the leading causes of adverse mental health these days is financial stress. This stress spills over into your relationship and that has an impact on your life and that of your family.

Resilient mental health for you and your partner are needed if you want to survive and do well in your line of work but where do you go for help that addresses all of your needs before a crisis happens?

At Acorn Life Path we are experts at navigating the FIFO and resource workers lifestyle. We understand the challenges you face on a daily basis and are here to show you how to tackle the challenges.

Here are what people are telling us they need help with:

• Paying down debts quickly
• Stop worrying about money
• Avoid the trap of living payday to payday
• Watch my savings grow
• Get ahead financially
• Find out where all the money goes.

Itís not just money that we find you are wanting help with. When money is tight it can cause issues with your partner.

If you are arguing about money, then hereís where we can help:

• Learn how to have a stronger relationship
• Strategies to communicate and raise difficult subjects effectively

We are unique in that we are not financial advisors, we are educators who have a particular interest in educating you because we know the banks wonít, you probably didnít learn this at school, and you may not have learnt good money habits from your parents.

For Resource Industry Companies

Motivated Employees, Better Workplace Mental Health, Improved Productivity and Safety

If you employ resource or remote construction workers then you know how important it is to manage employee stress and promote better mental health in your workforce.

You know that less stressed workers are more focused, safer, more productive, stay with you longer and make your job easier and make your company more money.

You also know that many of your workers struggle with the separation of being away from home, the long hours and effectively managing the extra money that working for you has brought them.

Depression, anxiety and excessive debts are often silent, hidden factors that affect your workers, at great cost to both them and your company.

Companies are being increasingly expected to consider the mental health and stress of their staff as part of their normal health and safety planning.

It was recognised in the Parliamentary Inquiry Report ëThe Impact of FIFO Work Practices on Mental Healthí, that employers should be providing financial education to their staff. The Mental Health Commission in Western Australia is currently developing a mental health accreditation standard to assess companies on how they safeguard the mental health of their staff.

Acorn Life Path provides programs to resource companyís staff to help them have lower levels of stress and better mental health while working for you. If you want to see a real return on your health and safety dollar then start with the mental health of your staff.

This training will identify:

• How to maintain and build better relationships and communication at work and at home
• How to plan and understand money better, ensuring their mind is on the job, not at home
• How to manage their money, debts and savings better so that financial stress is not affecting their health and performance
• Making firm plans for their future life by setting true goals for real results.

Acorn Life Path can tailor educational and training programs to meet your companyís budgets and objectives and improve the performance and healthy mental health of your workforce.
