Construction Opioid Awareness Week
PBX Assists in Creating a Resolution to Bring Awareness
to Opioid Usage by Construction Workers
Pennsylvania House of Representatives unanimously supported a resolution declaring the last full week of July as “Construction Opioid Awareness Week.” PBX worked with construction associations and labor organizations across the Commonwealth to launch this initiative.
House Resolution 981 designates the last full week of July as “Construction
Opioid Awareness Week” in Pennsylvania. This resolution states the problem and suggests
that construction companies promote awareness of the problem and potential
solutions. Our organization plans to
make resources available to our members and we will encourage each member to
participate in a toolbox talk on opioids during this week.
