Construction shapes our world but struggles with mental health more than most other industries.
At its extremes, the problem is costing lives: data shows that construction has one of the highest suicide rates of any industry in the US, UK and Australia.
The B1M and Procore have launched Get Construction Talking, a global initiative to raise awareness of mental health in construction.
Tackling this issue is complex, but one of the simplest things we can all start doing today is talking.
If we can all become more aware of mental health, normalise conversations around it, look to spot the signs in our colleagues that something might not be right and point them in the direction of support, then we can collectively start to move the dial on this issue at the grassroots level.
