    Did you know that 26% of the construction workforce is set to retire in the next four years, intensifying the industry's retention crisis? Or that one in three opioid-related deaths in Canada involves a construction worker? And did you know that construction workers are five times more likely to die by suicide than from workplace incidents?

    In this powerful episode, Gianluca Pascale and Angelo Suntres join us to unpack these staggering statistics. We explore the crushing pressures construction workers face and the societal norms that silence crucial conversations about mental health.

    As the conversation unfolds, we scrutinize the industry's traditional reliance on financial incentives for attraction and retention, revealing their inadequacy for sustainable workforce engagement.

    We highlight the crucial need for proactive leadership and collective action in the construction industry to foster a healthier, more resilient workforce. By advocating for platforms like the Constructors Guild, we aim to unite innovative minds and drive forward the transformation necessary for the industry's prosperity. This episode is a clarion call for change, urging all stakeholders to move beyond private discourse and champion the essential reforms needed for sustainable success.
