In the interview, Brenton McClean, a Site Supervisor on Balfour Beatty Living Place’s Southampton contract spoke candidly about his experiences whilst at work, which have included racist insults and physical attacks, and how that has impacted him personally.
He said: “I’ve heard people racially abuse me while I’m working and I try to let it go over my head most of the time, but it still hurts me, as it would anyone else”.
