Program Development

The construction industry faces alarming rates of suicide and overdose deaths.

For companies ready to tackle this issue head-on, Paul Lawson Helps (PLH) offers

a complete wellbeing solution. I work alongside your HR, safety, and training teams

to build a tailored program that proactively addresses mental health and substance

use challenges — getting far ‘upstream’ to prevent crises before they occur.

  • UPSTREAM AWARENESS

    - Establish a consistent schedule of suicide prevention and mental health training for all levels of workers.

    - Create brand-specific mental health marketing resources, such as stickers, EAP cards, postcards, and posters.

    - Conduct regular job site visits to deliver mental health toolbox talks, meeting field workers where they are and promoting resources.

  • MIDSTREAM PREVENTION

    - Offer coaching for workers experiencing a crisis and guide them on how to utilize available resources.

    - Develop a peer support program that trains office and field workers to advocate for their colleagues.

    - Facilitate connections with local mental health and addiction treatment centers.

  • DOWNSTREAM PLAN

    Establish a corporate plan for managing suicide or overdose crises.
