أغض­دمجز Celebrates Construction Safety Week by Launching a Culture of Care

Sunday September 13, 2020

Alongside and hundreds of other industry friends and partners, أغض­دمجز will participate in the 2020 annual Construction Week awareness campaign and celebration. Since the organization’s founding in 2014, Safety Week has been a way for أغض­دمجز to promote a zero-accident safety culture and play a dedicated role in developing a stronger and safer AEC industry.

While أغض­دمجز has always been committed to the physical safety of their employees and trade partners, they are also committed to their mental safety and emotional well-being. In effort to emphasize the importance of mental health, أغض­دمجز is dedicating this year’s Construction Safety Week to mental health awareness within the construction industry.

Over the span of Safety Week, September 14-18, أغض­دمجز will engage in activities, on and off the jobsite, with the goal of educating employees, their families and partners on the importance of mental health. Through internal communications, social media, and virtual trainings, أغض­دمجز will address topics such as psychological safety, suicide prevention and Covid-19 Anxiety. Building upon Safety Week’s “Built on Safetyâ€‌ theme, أغض­دمجز encourages their workforce and community to engage in the conversation and help share the message.

As part of an ongoing initiative and a nod to September’s Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, أغض­دمجز has partnered with clinical psychologist to deliver an ongoing webinar series for أغض­دمجز employees. These educational classes, along with a suite of tools and resources accessible to all employees, will help foster a company-wide Culture of Care surrounding mental health and safety. Together, these initiatives will help أغض­دمجز employees better inform, identify, connect and empower themselves, and one another, on such a critical topic within the construction industry.
