According to the Centers for Disease Control, construction has the highest suicide rate of all industries, at 53.2 suicides per 100,000 workers. That's about four times greater than the national average (17.3/100,000) and five times greater than all other construction fatalities combined (10.1/100,000).
Construction workers are statistically at a higher risk for mental health issues than virtually every other profession.
OSHA is recognizing the mental health hazards and the alarming suicide rates in construction and have sponsored Construction Suicide Prevention Week scheduled for September 4th - 8th 2023. Participating companies will receive an OSHA-recognized, industry-endorsed certificate of participation and badge you can display on your website and social media.

Failure to support employees’ mental health not only weighs on the employees themselves, but it also weighs heavily on an organizations’ bottom line. Businesses can no longer afford the status quo.
$23 billion is the amount spent annually in the U.S. on work productivity loss due to depression alone.
Every $1 investment in promoting mental health has a $3 – $5 return.
