PSS Mental Health in Ports (MHiP) week runs from 23–27 March, continuing PSS’s commitment to supporting mental wellbeing across the port sector.
The 2026 campaign focused on how mental health is influenced by the everyday realities of port operations. See below for a link to all the articles published across the week.
Remember: Good mental wellbeing is not just something to focus on for one week a year, but something to refer back to regularly . As well as looking at the articles from this year, members are encouraged to remind themselves of the articles and resources from previous campaign weeks.
