The Construction Health Network

The Construction Health Network brings together people who care about improving health in construction and want to make a practical difference.

Hosted by Construction Health & Wellbeing, the Network provides a space to share experience, hear from industry specialists and explore better ways to prevent work-related ill health.

Through regular online discussions, members can learn from real projects, exchange ideas and build relationships with others facing similar challenges.

Better conversations. Better practice. Healthier workplaces.

Improving workforce health is a challenge shared across the construction industry. Many organisations are working towards the same goals, often tackling similar problems and developing solutions that others could benefit from.

The Construction Health Network helps bring those conversations together.

Our sessions explore the issues affecting people across construction, with a focus on practical prevention and what works in real working environments.

We encourage open discussion, shared learning and the exchange of ideas that members can take back into their own organisations.

Learn from real industry experience

Hear directly from construction professionals, specialists and organisations sharing their experiences, research and approaches to workforce health. Discover what others are doing and what you could apply in your own workplace.

Connect with people who understand your challenges

Build relationships with others working to improve health across the sector. Share questions, compare approaches and benefit from the experience of people dealing with similar issues.

Stay informed and develop your knowledge

Explore emerging guidance, industry developments and new thinking around occupational health and psychosocial risk. Understand what these changes could mean in practice.

Turn ideas into practical action

Take useful insight back into your organisation. Our discussions focus on prevention, effective risk management and approaches that can make a meaningful difference to workforce health.

What do we discuss?

The Network explores a wide range of subjects affecting workforce health in construction, including occupational health and exposure risks, musculoskeletal health, mental health and psychosocial risk management.

We also look at how decisions made during project planning and delivery affect people’s health, and how organisations can strengthen prevention through better working practices.

Sessions draw on specialist knowledge, research and real examples from across the industry. Members are encouraged to bring their own questions and experiences, helping shape conversations that reflect the challenges construction professionals face.

Who is the Network for?

The Construction Health Network welcomes people with an interest in improving workforce health across the built environment.

This includes health and safety professionals, occupational health and wellbeing specialists, HR leaders, operational managers and senior decision-makers. We also welcome researchers, industry partners and others working to improve standards across construction.

You don’t need to have all the answers. A willingness to learn, share experiences and contribute to better industry practice is what matters.

Good ideas deserve to be shared, particularly when they can help prevent harm and improve working conditions across the industry.
