The Barbour ABI Stage
In 2023, Causeway Technologies launched a major new campaign to get businesses to pledge greater support for mental health, and for mental health provision to be included in health & safety and social value procurement conditions in construction contracts. Led by ex-England and Everton footballer Trevor Steven, the campaign has been touring the country meeting with government ministers, local authorities, and contractors at all levels of the industry to share best practice and raise awareness of the shocking statistics around mental health in the construction industry. 56% of workers report mental health problems and 12% report suicidal thoughts. Join Trevor for an eye-opening session that will lay the groundwork for a more supportive construction industry.
