About this session
Project Pressure, Deadlines, and Stress is a 60-minute to full-day stress management session for construction teams facing deadline, weather and client pressure who want to manage stress well. It runs live online or in person.
Crews learn to recognize stress responses before they become crises, separate what they control from fixed constraints, and protect safety standards when schedules compress.
If anyone may be at immediate risk, call emergency services. Ongoing stress that affects sleep, health or work is worth discussing with a doctor or employee assistance.
