What is the Hidden Cost of Ignoring Worker Well-Being in Construction?
from The Power of Construction · host Procore Technologies
In the construction industry, safety is the goal, but behind the scenes, a deeper crisis is unfolding—substance abuse, mental health struggles, safety incidents, and the pressure of overwork are pushing workers to the edge. What if the solution isn’t more safety rules or punitive measures, but a shift in how we care for our people? We'll explore how a culture of care—recovery-ready workplaces, empathetic leadership, and mental health support—could save lives and, at the same time, transform the industry from the ground up.
