82% of Construction Workers suffer from Mental Health Issues at Work!
That's according to studies carried out by the Institute of Government & Public Policy.
Does it shock you to learn that not only the person on your right but also your left, could be struggling if it isn't already you?
As part of #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek we wanted to share our practices with our audience, industry and trade, to help increase monitoring, prevention and preparation for mental health-related illness in the workplace.
So what do Lawson Group do? - I hear you ask...
1. 🤝 Ask your colleagues how they are - by opening up the conversation, the availability to listen and discuss any issues is imperative to understanding what is going on with your team. Allowing some time to 'chat' will be the most successful and conducive method to helping someone through what they are experiencing. Using this knowledge can create or prompt change in the workplace, to produce a healthier and safer working environment for all.
2. 👩⚕️ Annual Occupational Health Visits - These are carried out by an independent practitioner in a separate space within our head office. This allows staff to confidentially confide in a healthcare professional about any health concerns they may have in the workplace, and their well-being and gain results from routine health checks as a preventative measure.
3. 🆘 Registered Charities - We subscribe to the Lighthouse Construction Industry Charity via the National Federation of Demolition Contractors, we find that having an independent helpline which is always available, helps individuals have the confidence to talk to someone if they need help, inside or outside of the workplace.
4. ⚠ Pay close attention to Risk Assessments and Audits - We all can often take paperwork for granted, and just focus on the 'Pass' mark, but what if we missed something along the way? - creating attention to detail and mentions of risk factors in and around the workplace, can help

Demolition in London by Lawson Group
Today is Throwback Thursday! In a year where we are commemorating our 30th anniversary, we take a look back at one of our many successfully completed projects in London. This one was captured on a time-lapse video in 2019.
The works comprised of the demolition of a light industrial building along with the safe removal of slab, foundation, hardstanding, and asbestos. The site was located to the west of Summerstown and to the east of the former Wimbledon Football Club stadium.
All loose fixtures and fittings were removed and segregated for recycling or disposal. The foundations and ground floor slab were excavated, and arisings were processed to the client’s requirements.
The works were successfully completed within budget and the site was handed back to the client on time and ready for the next stage of the development.
You can read the full case study on our website here:https://www.lawsongroup.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/Summerstown-Case-Study-v2019w.pdf
