Recognising UK construction workers for World Mental Health Day



We at FutureBricks dedicate World Mental Health Day to UK construction workers, in recognition of their contribution to this sector.


These experts uplift the property development industry and are the people working behind the scenes. They are the force behind public and private housing infrastructure, as well as commercial and industrial builds.

Besides the nature of the job being physically demanding and posing health risks, construction industry stress stems from a variety of factors, including a lack of job security, long hours, pressure of unrealistic deadlines and the effects of working in hectic environments, all disrupting the nervous system, as the body has to be on constant alert mode.

As a male-dominated field, the construction industry still tends to see a stigma around mental health. In certain cases, this makes it difficult for those affected to speak out on mental health issues. Together, we can make it the new norm to have open conversations and support one another.

Bearing this awareness, FutureBricks wants to thank construction workers. Gratitude can start small with the power of a smile and a feeling of appreciation, and this is the energy the firm wants to pass on to these individuals.
