The Challenge
A Hazardous History
The construction industry is one of Australia’s most dangerous—accounting for 11% of serious workplace injury claims across the nation. With the success of their business based on people and teamwork, energy and innovation, Laing O’Rourke were in search of a new health and wellbeing partner to protect and empower their people to be their best.
The Opportunity
