According to the Center for Disease Control, construction has the highest suicide rate of all industries, at 53.2 suicides per 100,000 workers. That's about four times greater than the national average. If you or someone you know is struggling, please contact the National Suicide Prevention Hotline. It's ok to ask for help! In this week’s episode, Spencer is joined by a fellow teammate, Malachi Price, Marketing Consultant at Builder Funnel, to discuss the importance of Movember, a charity that focuses on advocacy for men's mental health.
This cause is near-and-dear to all of our hearts at Builder Funnel. This year we decided to make raising money and awareness a little more interesting with an internal competition! Find out how!
