Dynapac has joined in the effort to shine a brighter light on the issue of mental health challenges and suicide within the construction industry.
The company was one of the first manufacturers to sign the Suicide in Construction Awareness Proclamation spearheaded by Dr. Vince Hafeli, president of Ajax Paving Industries of Florida. He has taken the lead in a national campaign promoting awareness of suicide and mental health wellness in the construction industry.
Combined, Dynapac and Hafeli used World of Asphalt 2024 as an opportunity to shine some light on the topic.

Hafeli recalled that when he first met Dynapac’s president and general manager, Jamie Rous, it only took about five minutes to know the company was on board with supporting his efforts.
According to Hafeli, one of the first things Roush said was, “Look, I know you don't use much of our equipment and this is not about me trying to sell you anything, but I really want to do this.”
