Show Notes

We are excited to share our conversation with Mike Ellis and Barte Hess from Apollo Mechanical Contractors apollomech.com.

As safety manager for Apollo Mechanical, Mike has developed, taught, and implemented world-class safety programs, leading Apollo to receive numerous site safety awards for injury-free work environments.

Barte is Apollo's Division Health and Safety Manager. He's a husband, dad, and all-around fix-it guy. In his spare time, he restores hot rod cars and plays music.

We enjoyed talking and hearing stories about how their pragmatic approach to psychological safety and total worker health is transforming the construction industry. Prioritizing mental wellness does not have to be complicated; sometimes simplicity is the innovation!

If you need support or feel distressed, there is always hope and help. You can call or text 988, the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, to speak with a trained crisis intervention specialist.
