JACKSON BUILD ON MEN’S HEALTH AT WORK
5th June 2008
Jackson Building Centres is focusing its attention on National Men’s Health Week this month in a bid to encourage its male customers to take more care at work.
The week, held from 9th to 15th June, is organised by the Men’s Health Forum to tackle male health issues and this year focuses specifically on health in the workplace.
The theme follows evidence that a large proportion of men’s health problems are caused at work by accidents, exposure to hazardous substances and stress among other contributors.
Jackson Building Centres, one of the largest quality builders’ merchants in the East Midlands, is keen to support the campaign to help increase its customers’ awareness of work-related health risks, both physical and mental.
Colin Bartleet, Marketing Manager at Jackson Building Centres, said: “We want to make sure our customers know just how important it is for men to look after themselves at work and at home.
“In the building industry simple things such as lifting heavy objects incorrectly can create health problems along with overworking or not eating correctly.”
Jackson will direct customers to the campaign website for further information about health and options available to them.
