The Construction Industry Council (CIC) has called for every construction professional to “fully familiarise” themselves with the Phase 2 Report of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry and its recommendations. It will work closely with members, of which IIRSM is one, as it develops an appropriate detailed response. Sir Martin Moore-Bick has made many recommendations for further action in the report, based on a careful analysis of the evidence presented by hundreds of witnesses and in hundreds of thousands of documents. CIC Chief Executive Graham Watts OBE said: “It will take time to give the thought and consideration that the report requires and to develop a response that will address the various recommendations Sir Martin has brought forward. It is essential that the construction sector recognises the findings he has reported and that we learn the lessons and respond to create an industry and a culture where safety, competence and compliance with the law is an absolute priority. Only then will public trust in the sector be restored.” Read the report at https://lnkd.in/d-8FTDs7

Many people know someone directly affected by suicide and the impact it has on the immediate community at home and at work. The workplace is a contributory factor in an estimated one in seven deaths by suicide. In the UK, that’s more than 1,000 per year where work is a factor. Most workplaces are aware of mental health and wellbeing and good employers are doing their best to create an environment where their employees can thrive, yet we know, for some, their mental health will fail and they may become a danger to themselves. In this candid in-person session on 25 September with IIRSM London Branch, Rosie Russell IIRSM Co-President will discuss both causation and prevention of suicides. With special thanks to MeiraGTx for sponsoring the venue and catering for this event. To attend: https://lnkd.in/e2dbPFJd
