This study provides evidence of a decline in suicide rates among Australian construction workers over the last two decades; this decline may be attributable to the combined effects of population-wide, male-specific, and sector-specific suicide prevention efforts over this same period, suggesting that the continuation or expansion of such efforts may lead to further declines.
