For those of us working in building and construction, men’s physical and mental health is a top priority. And Movember is one of the most popular events focusing on awareness and fundraising in the space. 

Each year, many of the team at BAA participate, including our Builders Academy Australia CEO Andrew Shea, so we thought this was a great time to reflect on Movember 2019 and provide you all with some more information on why it’s so important to us all. 

Andrew Kirk has been an insurance assessor for over ten years now, twice as long as he ever spent working in a trade. That doesn’t mean that Andrew’s time working as a bricklayer were wasted. He uses his knowledge of building and construction to improve outcomes for his customers.
