CIF Construction Safety Week 2021 is running this week from Monday, 25th October to Friday, 29th October with a focus on a different theme each day.
The theme for today was “Mind Your Health” and CIF Southern Region focused on mental health in the industry.
With this in mind, the CIF ran a briefing for Health & Safety Officers and Site Managers to assist in recognising the signs that a colleague is struggling and how best to assist when an issue arises. The briefing took place at the Counting House at the Beamish & Crawford site, on South Main Street, Cork City.
