Recognising the signs and knowing where to get support.

Pressure, stress and worry can affect anyone. In construction, long hours, demanding work, financial pressures and life outside of work can all have an impact on how we feel.

This short module explores what anxiety is, how it can affect people in different ways, and why recognising the signs matters. You’ll look at common pressures both on and off site, including long working hours, financial stress, poor sleep, isolation and the pressure to “just get on with it”.

By the end of the module, you’ll be able to:

Learn about some of the common signs of anxiety and how they may show up differently from person to person.

Explore how factors such as long hours, financial worries, poor sleep, isolation and workplace pressures can affect wellbeing.

Discover where to get trusted support for yourself or someone else, both within the construction industry and beyond.

Build confidence in starting a conversation with someone who may be struggling and learn how to encourage them to access support.
