It's not the most fun or easy article to read but it is important information nonetheless. This week we dive into the opioid crisis in construction.  Based on a 2020 report people who worked in construction are at the highest risk for overdose deaths of any occupation. There are several risk factors that contribute to this statistic.  That is why it's so important to be armed with the right resources and information so we can all work to lower this number significantly. All it could take is one conversation. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction visit you can visit na.org/ aa.org or ask your employer about more resources.  Hope you enjoy it!
