CRE-MSD is pleased to be partnering with the Work Wellness and Disability Prevention Institute (WWDPI) to present educational webinars on various construction work health topics, as part of the Construction Work Health Series Webinars.
In this webinar
Construction workers in the United States are 3 to 5 times more likely to be injured or killed on the job compared to workers in other industries, and other countries report similar statistics. BeSuper! is an integrated Total Worker Health® (TWH) intervention for construction supervisors and crews designed to improve safety, health and well-being.
You will learn:
- Rationale for a Total Worker Health (TWH) intervention
- Elements of a TWH intervention for construction
- How to implement self-monitoring and team-based scripted training
- Significant changes in the study of construction supervisors and crews
- How to adapt an intervention for a different industry than the target
