Part 2 - Got Your Back: Suicide Prevention in Construction

Construction workers face a unique set of challenges that can take a serious toll on mental health. The construction industry is both physically and psychologically demanding. Issues such as physical hazards, job demands, job insecurity, lack of control over schedules, and the constant juggle between work and family. The industry in Newfoundland and Labrador is not immune to this issue and there is a critical need for conversations aimed at increasing understanding of what workplaces and system partners can do to support the mental health of workers and prevent further loss of life. In this episode, DeeAnne Feltham-Scott is joined by Tammy McCabe, Mark Balsom and Corey Parsons, Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Task Force, for a discussion on the complex factors, limited employer and peer support, negative coping mechanisms, and deeply ingrained silence around mental health in the trades.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
