IBEAM (Ideal Body, Environment, and Mind) is a suicide prevention program for the construction industry developed by SAVE in partnership with WTW. Traditionally, construction industry risk control efforts have focused entirely on physical loss. IBEAM works to change that, offering virtual education or training at all levels of the workforce, enhancing core competencies related to mental health and suicide prevention. In 2024, SAVE continued working on this comprehensive suicide prevention program for the construction industry by launching 2 new tiers of content aimed at specific audiences: IBEAM Executive and IBEAM Workforce.
