Mental Health Chips
Don’t gamble with mental health. Keep the “chip” handy. Share them with your friends, kids, neighbors, classmates, and co-workers. It’s a safe bet that someone you work with, go to school with – or even live with – may be struggling. It’s an easy way to start a conversation or just hand it over to let someone know you care.
Every single day, we work to keep our job sites safe so our associates can walk back off the site and go home to their families and friends. But we know that life off the job comes onto the site with our employees, and sometimes we all need a little help. The Rudolph Libbe Group is committed to total health.
We believe in being “Stronger Together. Safer Together.” We need to watch out for one another in all aspects. We are committed to training our associates to understand and watch for suicide warning signs. Regard for people is a core part of our culture.
