October is Mental Health Awareness Month at Weathertex, we're shining a spotlight on mental health in construction and manufacturing!
Construction workers face unique challenges that can take a toll on their mental well-being. Long hours, physical demands, and job insecurity can add stress to an already demanding profession.
Our 150+ employees will be wearing their TradeMutt shirts for the month of October, raising awareness and starting conversations about mental health. TradeMutt is a social enterprise workwear company by tradies for tradies. They make funky, eye-catching workwear designed to start conversations about mental health making an invisible issue impossible to ignore.
This month, we're committed to:
Raising awareness: Let's break the stigma surrounding mental health in construction. It's okay to talk about it, seek help, and support each other.
Support: We're here for you. Whether you're a worker, manager, or anyone in the industry, reach out to your peers and check in on their well-being.
Self-care: Prioritise your mental health. Take breaks, practice mindfulness, and find healthy ways to cope with the challenges of the job.
Let's weather the storms together and create a healthier, happier work environment. Join us in promoting mental health awareness this October!
