Having worked in the construction industry for 30 years I have seen and witnessed how the industries attitude towards both women and mental health have changed dramatically. More so in the last few years than ever before. As a project manager and quantity surveyor I have direct dealings with all parties and personnel involved in the delivery of a project t and can see first hand the devastating impact stress, anxiety and mental health issues has on firstly a project, but then directly on a persons reputation. The cost is immense. Especially if it costs life’s.
Statement:
"Mental health issues affect EVERYONE. At some time, in some event, in some ways. It could be you too. Let’s drop the stigma and be united as people. We are all in the together.'
