Roofers in Recovery Addiction & Mental Health Packet

Mental health is a critical component of workplace safety, productivity and overall well-being-especially in high-stress industries like roofing and construction. 83% of construction workers experience a mental health issue and 1 in 3 struggle with daily anxiety or depression. Despite this, 80% do not seek professional help, often due to stigma or lack of resources. With the physically demanding nature of the job, long hours, high-risk environments and job site isolation, workers in this industry face unique challenges that make mental health awareness and support essential.

This Mental Health & Wellness Protocol, developed by Roofers in Recovery, is designed to help companies create a culture where mental health is prioritized, employees feel supported and resources are readily available. By implementing education, proactive support and crisis intervention strategies, businesses can help reduce workplace accidents, improve employee retention and foster a safer, healthier workforce. The urgency for mental health awareness is evident, with 46 million Americans aged 12 and older struggling with substance use disorders and over 110,000 drug overdose deaths recorded in 2023.

Whether you're a business owner, manager or crew member, this guide provides the knowledge and tools to build a workplace where mental health is openly discussed and supported. Together, we can break the stigma, provide lifesaving resources and strengthen the roofing and construction industry for the future.
