“Raffi recently established a cross-trade partnership with four national construction associations to produce five safety and health videos aimed at transforming safety culture. The videos were made available to almost 10,000 construction firms and over 1 million workers in conjunction with Construction Safety Week 2023. The contents emphasize safety culture changes around fall protection, electrical safety, personal protective equipment, working safely at height and mental health.”
