Ask R U OK? Any Day: Starting the Conversation

 

Construction Sciences teams in laboratories and on project sites across Australia are taking time out on Thursday 10 September to have a conversation for R U OK? Day.

From city laboratories to remote outback Australia, our people are stopping, listening and encouraging each other to share what is really going on. At Construction Sciences teams are coming together over , with discussions to open up conversations about mental health.

Whether our teams get together with a BBQ, cupcakes or a cuppa, R U OK? Day encourages all of us to normalise talking about what is going on in our lives and to have genuine conversations about mental health. This year’s campaign message, Ask R U OK? Any Day is a reminder that we do not need to wait for the second Thursday in September. If someone is on your mind today, today is the day to ask.

You do not need to be an expert to reach out. Ask, listen without judgement, encourage action and check back in.

So not just today, but any day, check in with your friends, family or work colleagues, take the time to listen and ask, R U OK?
