On Wednesday November 2nd our presenter was Greg Sizemore, Vice President of Health, Safety, Environment and Workforce of Associated Builders & Contractors.

His presentation was about Mental Health Issues in Construction. Greg currently serves on the Occupational Health and Safety Administration’s Advisory Committee on Construction Safety and Health and the board of directors of NCCER and chairs the Construction Industry Alliance for Suicide Prevention.

We learned that Construction is the most at-risk industry for suicide deaths. We learned risk factors, warning signs, how to deal with those factors and warnings.

All members/contractors are encouraged to go to preventconstructionsuicide.com and take the CIASP Pledge.

We encourage everyone to visit that website for valuable information for you and your company.
