We are excited to share our conversation with Dr. Andy Walmsley from Building Wellness, a nonprofit in New Zealand that focuses on supporting mental well-being and reducing suicide rates in the construction industry.
Dr. Andy’s Ph.D. explored help-seeking attitudes and behaviors among men within the New Zealand construction industry. He chose his Ph.D. topic to offer practical help to address the high rates of suicide within the sector.
In our conversation, Andy talked about the challenges the construction workforce in New Zealand faces and how their organization operates to meet their needs. We appreciate Andy taking the time to talk to us!
