Action starts with awareness
Suicide is rarely spontaneous, though it often comes as a surprise. Even so, there are signs you can watch for and key ways to help.
Tune in to the conversation
We’re not just talking about suicide because it’s September. Over the years, key people have come on Dirt Talk to share their stories. From Michelle Walker, VP of Finance for SSC Underground and acting chairperson for the CIASP to “world’s greatest operator” Garret Wilson, listen to their struggles and learn how you can have your crew’s back.
“I envision an industry where a worker will feel just as safe saying, ‘I’m having trouble,’ as does a worker in Arizona in getting a spot on the arm checked for skin cancer.”
