MGL Group joins the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the World Federation for Mental Health in recognising World Mental Health Day. This year’s theme, “Make mental health and wellbeing for all a global priority,” resonates deeply with our commitment to employee wellbeing.
We understand the unique challenges faced by those in the construction industry. That’s why we’ve implemented a comprehensive programme that empowers individuals to prioritise their mental health. Through various dedicated resources, open communication, training and awareness we aim to empower individuals to seek help when needed
We believe in creating a supportive environment where employees feel comfortable seeking help.
We are working to break down the stigma of mental health problems, which can be particularly challenging in a male-dominated environment like the construction industry. The ‘macho’ culture can encourage men to turn to poor coping mechanisms and may prevent them from speaking up and seeking help. We want to encourage open conversations and offer support to those who need it.
