🦺 Mental health is just as important as physical safety on the jobsite. Across BC, there are incredible organizations dedicated to supporting workers in the trades, construction, and industrial sectors through mental health, wellness, addiction, crisis, and chronic pain resources.
🤝 Whether it’s counselling, peer support, toolbox talks, crisis lines, or wellness education, support is available and no one has to navigate these challenges alone.
Some valuable resources include:
• BuildStrong by CIRP
• Tailgate Toolkit
• RE-MIND Work to Wellness
• BCCSA Mental Health Resources
• HeadsUpGuys
• Help Starts Here BC
• Talk Su***de Canada
• Pain BC’s “The Guide Line”
💬 Asking for help can look like:
Talking to someone you trust
Reaching out to a supervisor or coworker
Calling a support line
Accessing counselling or wellness resources
Simply checking in and saying “I’m not doing okay”
Strong crews look out for one another both on and off the jobsite. Asking for support is a sign of strength, not weakness. ❤️
