Time To Talk Day

2 February 2024 | Blog

Time To Talk Day encourages people to speak out. Here at The HR Booth, we are passionate about promoting mental health and well-being in the workplace. Let’s delve into why it’s crucial to prioritise mental health and the steps we’re taking to make a difference.

In today’s fast-paced world, checking in regularly on our employees’ mental health is paramount. It’s not just about asking if they’re okay; it’s about actively listening and offering support when needed. Our open-door policy encourages one-to-one chats, ensuring everyone feels valued and heard.

We believe that having a designated Occupational Health Advisor is essential. They played a vital role in providing expert guidance, early intervention, and a confidential space for employees to discuss their mental health concerns.

Here at The HR Booth, we’re taking proactive steps to create a mentally healthy workplace. We recently introduced a lunchtime ‘Walk & Talk’ session. This enables us to get out and about, stay active and engage in non-work related chat.

We are thrilled to announce that our ‘Mental Health in the Workplace’ E-Book is now available for free download. This e-book covers everything from reducing stress in the workplace to building positive relationships. You can access this via this link.
