YOUR 2023 AMBITIONS: HOW TO PROMOTE MENTAL WELLBEING AT WORK

We’re approaching January. A time when we start thinking about our good intentions for the year ahead. Unfortunately, new year’s resolutions are often broken, which is why the 19th of January is dubbed ‘Quitters Day’.

One of Sodexo Engage’s Mental Health First Aiders, Debbie Evans, talks about how we should ditch resolutions and instead make promises.

“Starting from a kind and positive mindset creates less stress and anxiety. This kinder message supports your consistency and motivation, leading to a change in mindset and behavior.”

In this blog, we take a look at the state of mental well-being, your responsibility as an employer, how to promote mental health in the workplace, and how to establish mental health first aiders.
