MEETING TOPIC: The Next Frontier of Safety - Wellbeing & Suicide Prevention
For nearly 90 years, the construction industry has made tremendous strides in physical safety, dramatically reducing injuries and saving countless lives on job sites. However, a different crisis now demands our attention—one that claims even more lives than slips, trips, and falls: suicide. In this 45-minute presentation, you will learn practical strategies your company can implement to address these statistics and build a proactive culture of care.
