It’s no secret that industrial careers are hard work

Construction industry jobs are physically and mentally demanding, they require early start times, long hours and strenuous activity. Cardiovascular risk factors are higher among the trade. That’s why the American Heart Association created an initiative to engage industrial workers across the country and inspire them to live longer, healthier lives.
