A word from our founder

Breaking the stigma starts with conversation.

“Mental health challenges can affect anyone at any time. In the construction industry, the long hours and time away from family can make it especially tough. That’s why we’ve partnered with Mates in Mind and The Lighthouse Club to support our workforce and work together to break the stigma around mental health. Remember, it’s okay to not be okay, and we’re here to help.”

Will James Founder and Managing Director, Foundation Personnel

Our Commitment

Mental health matters
on every site.

Construction can be demanding, with long hours, time away from home, financial pressure and high-pressure working environments. These challenges can affect mental health, confidence and wellbeing.

At Foundation Personnel, our commitment goes beyond placing workers. We want to help people in construction feel supported, informed and able to access the right help when they need it.

What We Stand For

Our values shape how we work.

Construction workers face some of the toughest mental health challenges in the UK workforce. Long hours, working away from home, financial pressure and workplace stress can all contribute to poor mental wellbeing.

Raising awareness, encouraging open conversations and helping workers access support early can make a real difference. Employers, recruiters and site teams all have a part to play in building a healthier industry.

Recognise the signs

Encourage people to speak up when stress, anxiety or pressure becomes too much to manage alone.

Start conversations

Creating a workplace culture where people feel able to talk can help reduce stigma and build mutual trust.

Share support routes

Make sure workers know where to find confidential help, guidance and practical resources when needed.
