The job with a doubled suicide rate + Shock Menendez parole ruling
About this episode
The construction industry has one of the highest suicide rates in the Australia, with employees twice as likely to die compared to other male workers. An often-toxic workplace environment and poor mental health are major contributing factors with experts calling for urgent action.
In this episode of The Briefing, Natarsha Belling is joined by Health and Wellbeing expert Tony LaMontagne to explain how we can turn around the deadly trend and the important message for both employees and bosses in the workplace.
Headlines: New major childcare changes announced, Ultra Violette has pulled one of its most popular products from shelves, and Erik Menendez has been denied parole.
