This is Derek Miller, Speaking on Business. Big-D Construction is committed to creating a safe workspace for all its employees, focusing on both physical and mental well-being. With a unique approach, Big-D is working to make a difference. Senior Benefits Specialist Marissa Gray joins us with more.
Marissa Gray:
At Big-D Construction, we recognize that the construction industry has one of the highest suicide rates among all workforces. That’s why we prioritize the mental well-being of our employees alongside physical safety.
We accomplish this through the promotion and education of our Employee Assistance Program, coaching, virtual therapy services, positive messaging from company leadership, policies that promote mental well-being, and suicide prevention training for leaders, supervisors and managers.
Big-D also works in partnership with the Utah Suicide Prevention Committee and Coalition through their workplace workgroup. Private businesses, together with public partners, offer information and training to businesses across the state. This includes the Suicide Prevention in the Workplace Toolkit created with the Salt Lake Chamber.
Big-D Construction is a proud partner of the Utah Suicide Prevention Committee and Coalition and the Salt Lake Chamber to make a difference in the construction industry and businesses.
Together, we can prevent suicides and improve workplace mental health.
