How can site welfare improve your team’s mental health?

02/03/2022

Recent research shows that 49% of construction workers experience work-related stress. The combination of physically gruelling work combined with weather extremes and ever more competitive time pressures can all contribute to physical and mental hardship on site.

It’s been proven that when staff feel valued, productivity increases, absences from work drop and morale can improve. Creating a safe, comfortable onsite space for employees is one of the best ways to increase performance and ensure that your team feels appreciated.

Creating onsite spaces for your workforce to not only feel dry and warm but also a space where they can prepare and eat food, relax and unwind or even work privately when needed, can make a huge difference to your team’s mental and physical health.
