Listen to an educational and supportive webinar as we talk about the mental health crisis in the construction industry covering topics such as: 

- Last year, in 2023, there were 30 fatalities across our building sites 
- Each year, there are over 2,000 major accidents that incapacitated the worker in such a way that they cannot return to work
- Stress, depression or anxiety accounts for 20% of all work-related illness in construction 
- Every single working day in the UK, two construction workers take their own life
- And every year, over 2.4 million working days are lost through injury or illness in our industry

David Turner from Veriforce CHAS and Sarah Bolton, CEO for the Lighthouse Construction Charity, explore the initiatives in place to address these issues and discuss the importance of prioritising the wellbeing and welfare of workers and highlight the need for companies to ensure the health, safety, and fair treatment of their employees.
