I was shocked to learn recently that suicide is a leading cause of work-related fatalities, especially in construction - among those who build our highways, airfields, commercial buildings and skyscrapers, 53 out of 100,000 die by suicide – a rate that practically quadruples the national average of 13.6/100,000....and it's a topic that is seldom discussed. So I reached out to my friend Cal Beyer for some guidance, and we created a page at:
www.stopthinkprevent.com/suicide.html stopthinkprevent also just joined the Construction Industry Alliance for Suicide Prevention This is too important a subject, with too much impact on so many families, not to address head on. Please read, pass it on, and make suggestions for additions if you are aware of other resources! Leave a Reply. |
