New protections and support for construction workers

Many UK construction workers commit suicide each year. We think that long hours, poor working conditions and a lack of public respect contribute to this. We believe reducing construction hours can improve workers' work-life balance, leading to happier and more efficient projects. We believe the cost will be passed to clients and managed in preconstruction. We think it could also reduce unnecessary/vanity works, saving money and carbon emissions. Trades are vital and we must protect them.
