Under the Hard Hat: Mental Health and Safety Culture in Construction

In this episode of "Spill the Ink," Steven Gallo speaks with Sonya Bohmann, Executive Director of the Construction Industry Alliance for Suicide Prevention, about the mental health crisis hiding in plain sight across the AEC industry. Suicide claims more than five times as many construction workers' lives each year as on-the-job injuries, yet many firms still aren't talking about it. Sonya breaks down the risk factors driving that statistic, the most common mistakes firms make when they try to address mental health and what communications and marketing professionals can do to lead the charge internally.
