VitalCog: Suicide Prevention in Construction

About this event

9:00am - 11:00am

Approximately 1,000 construction workers die on jobsites each year despite all of the training, PPE, programs and other measures put in place. This is a sad and sobering statistic, especially when we consider that one of those could be us or someone on our crew. As shocking as those numbers are – there’s one that’s even more shocking. Over 5,000 people working in construction will die by suicide each year. That’s right – 5 times as many of your fellow construction workers will take their own lives as will be killed due to a jobsite accident.

The construction industry has one of the highest rates of suicide.

The solution is YOU! Sign up for the VitalCog in Construction training. This class is not therapy...learn early warning signs and how to talk to someone about suicide.

We encourage you and your company’s leaders to attend this important and potentially life-saving training.
