Long hours, tight deadlines, and a million and one moving parts that have to be managed. Those working in the construction industry are more likely to experience work-related stress and other mental health conditions than the UK average. We already deliver a few first aid courses including Emergency First Aid at Work which is essential for anyone working in the industry. But we believe that Mental Health First Aid is just as important to help break through the culture that prevents people from feeling like they can seek help and support when they need it. The course teaches you to recognise the warning signs of mental ill health and develops your confidence and skills to approach and support those who need it while keeping yourself safe. Get in touch with us to find out more about how we can support you and your team or to book onto our upcoming courses. Our registered instructor, Steve Broom, can deliver the MHFA England two-day course online or in person, either at our office in Poole or at your own premises. #MentalHealth #MentalHealthFirstAid #FirstAid #MentalHealthAtWork #EmployeeMentalHealth
