#126 - Compilation (Brick by Brick #22)

This is the 10th episode of the Brick by Brick series. This series was launched due to the positive reaction to the construction series and is proudly sponsored by Lendlease. We will be interviewing a range of people from the industry and will be discussing a range of topics such as the state of mental health in the industry.Australia loses one construction worker every two days to suicide & more than 20% of the construction industry are shown to have had a mental health condition. These figures are made even more compelling as it is an industry that employs 10% of the working population. We feel this podcast will play an important role in creating conversations and awareness. Our goal is to change the construction industry, one conversation at time....In this episode we listen to a compilation of recent Brick by Brick conversations. ...A huge thank you to our sponsor Lendlease for all of the work they are doing in mental health. They have a holistic approach to health & wellbeing, and continue to grow their focus around mental health. They know that employees are likely to experience higher levels of stress, anxiety and depression if they work in the construction sector. In Australia, construction workers are six times more likely to die by suicide than a workplace incident.   Looking after the physical and mental health of our people is a significant part of the Lendlease culture. In support of this, Lendlease introduced wellbeing leave in 2015 – giving all employees one day every four months to attend to health & wellbeing related needs. You can learn more here: https://www.lendlease.com/au/media-centre/our-view/mental-health/...Thanks for listening!
