In construction, safety isn’t only about the work that's built - it’s about the people who build it. A safe site starts with a culture that protects every worker’s wellbeing.

Join us with Tammy McCabe, Manager of Communications + Industry Relations at the Newfoundland and Labrador Construction Safety Association (NLCSA), as she shares insights from nearly 20 years of advancing psychological health and safety in the construction sector. From leading NLCSA’s Got Your Back initiative to championing LivingWorks safeTALK and LivingWorks ASIST, Tammy is helping build more connected, supportive and su***de‑safer job sites across Canada.

During this live conversation, Tammy discusses:
🔹 Why psychological health and safety must be a priority
🔹 How skills‑based training empowers workers to support one another
🔹 The impact of the Got Your Back program
🔹 What fosters a caring peer‑support culture on job sites
🔹 How construction’s team‑driven identity fuels meaningful change

Whether you work in construction, safety, leadership or community support, this session will inspire action and connection.

See you live on March 18!
