Agenda10.00 - 10.30BST
Mental health in construction
Construction workers are facing a mental health crisis; reports have shown they are at high risk for suicide. With this topic we will be highlighting the importance of mental health and wellbeing in construction, as well as looking at solutions and resources for employers and employees alike to help more people open up about their situation, and to improve mental wellbeing and support in the workplace.
10.30 - 11.00BSTDriving compliance and behavioural change
Construction is one of the most highly-regulated industries for safety, but continues to be a repeat offender for workplace fatalities, accidents and non-compliance. With this topic we aim to give employers the tools necessary to take their workforce on a journey, exploring the challenges around human behaviour, awareness and training, and how to look beyond regulations for solutions to the realities of compliance.
11.00 - 11.30BSTCombatting counterfeit products in construction
Alarmingly, counterfeit goods are continually finding their way into the market, getting smarter and more convincing, with some even sporting fake certifications. Trade bodies are becoming more aware of this issue, and testing products available through online platforms such as Amazon and eBay in a bid to make the public aware of unsafe products. With this topic, we aim to gather experts to discuss the criminality of counterfeit goods, the importance of quality and safety testing and certification, and alternative ways that businesses can look to cut costs on goods.
11.30 - 12.00BSTCutting-edge innovations
