SHRM highlights that even as the pandemic fades, mental health should remain a top priority in the workplace. Employers and teams are encouraged to continue offering accessible mental health benefits, train managers to recognize and respond to signs of distress, and build cultures rooted in empathy and psychological safety. For AEC workplaces, where stress and fast-paced environments are common, these steps can help reduce burnout, boost morale, and make mental well-being a regular part of jobsite conversations and company culture.
