Chris Steel warned the audience that the HSE will be having a noise control inspection focus throughout 2024/25.
Michael Fitzgibbon (Balfour Beatty) shared some personal stories from his time in the army, to help explain why mental health is so important and why he will continue supporting as many people as he can in the construction sector.
Lauren Miller (BAM) explained that positive change only happens with good leadership, which echoed Michael's thoughts around marginal gains.
