Good nutrition gets the nod
More energy on site, less risk of accidents due to fatigue
On May 1, John Bleasby wrote “Contractors need to be concerned about the diets of their workers. A tradesperson’s most important asset is not their tools! It’s their health! Bad nutrition results in sluggishness, short tempers, mental errors, lost innovation and perhaps even an on-site accident.”
Derek Pallister is totally on-board with that concept.
“I completely agree! I have switched almost completely to bringing lunch – which saves time and improves ‘rest/down’ time from the outside weather. And if necessary that we need to get food for lunch, we mainly, if not exclusively go the grocery stores and use their salad bars. A much improved feeling on the sites in the afternoon and no more ‘gut rots’.”
