40% of construction workers have experienced mental health issues at some point in their careers.
Another 1 in 6 have considered suicide.
How do you keep your job sites running? And what happens when the stress your crews are experiencing has an effect on safety, productivity and workers that show up?
In construction, mental health issues typically aren’t dealt with front and center. That’s because they look like:
- Missed shifts
- Safety missteps
- Workers’ comp claims
- Good workers walking off the job
The truth is, your team is carrying a lot, but many likely don’t feel safe speaking up. Especially in male-dominated, high-performance environments like construction.
That’s where Notice.Talk.Act.® at Work comes into play.
NTA® at Work turns well-being into a business advantage, not a budget drain.
Why It Matters to Your Organization
- 64% of construction workers experienced anxiety or depression in the past year—an increase of 10% in one year! (Clayco 2025)
- Only 20% of construction workers feel comfortable discussing mental health with their employers, and about half don’t seek help due to stigma. (Wifi Talents, 2025)
- Employed adults who are offered mental health training at work are more likely to be engaged, passionate, or excited at work compared to those who do not receive such training. (APA, 2023)

“Recently, our managers and employees have been asking for help to recognize when their colleagues are struggling. We partnered with the American Psychiatric Association Foundation’s Center for Workplace Mental Health to customize and launch a training program for our employees globally. The training explains what distress signs to look for, how to engage, and how to know when to escalate a concern.”
— Lynn Castrataro, Vice President of Total Rewards, Trane Technologies
“The Center has been focused on workplace mental health long before the recent interest in workplace wellbeing post-pandemic. They have developed leadership, expertise, and partners over many years that position them on the leading edge of the needs of employers and their workforces. This allowed us to put out resources that are timely and relevant, that can help employers of all sizes improve the workplace experience and mental health of our workforce.”
— Gaurava Agarwal, M.D., Associate Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Services, Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine
