Social Connections
While Working Remotely
🗣Just think for a moment about the amount of social connection that would go on in a typical workplace on any given day.
📣Think about how people greet each other and share information in the mornings, the kind of conversations that go on in the coffee room, these interactions, and the social connectedness that comes with it is a big part of what makes work such a substantial factor in our lives.
🔴What can a manager do to help his employees to achieve a bit of that when remotely working?
Workplace mental health
Is the workplace initiative working.
What started out as “work from home” has slowly turned into “live at work”. 📌 With increasing work hours, lack of boundaries in personal and work spaces, uncertain future all have led to deteriorating mental health for employees. Recent reports suggest that 1 in 6 employees in the corporate world suffered from problems related to worsening mental health. 📌 While the importance of mental health at workplace is fairly obvious, the implementation is tricky. Many companies struggle to get employees engaged, leadership aligned and achieve the impact that is truly needed. 📌 How can leaders ensure that mental wellness initiatives succeed at their workplace? 📌 At Manah Wellness, we partner with over 50 organisations, to support their employee wellbeing and these are the 4 key Indicators that demonstrate that mental health at the workplace initiative is indeed working.
A Staff Pulse Survey
Why is it important?
📌 Do you check your bank account only once a year? Of course not. So then why do we only check how our employees feel in our companies once a year?🤔
📌 Most companies invest in the employee commitment survey but check in on their staff satisfaction only once every year or two. And that is not enough. Too much time goes by without sufficient time to address significant issues that your employees may have.
📝 With staff pulse surveys, you can regularly check in with your staff and address any issues or concerns before it’s too late.
Mental Health at Workplace
What can managers do?
🤔 Have you wondered what to do to support your employees as they face new stressors, safety concerns, and economic upheaval? Here’s our advice.⬇️
👨💻 Be vulnerable.
Being sincere about your mental health challenges as a manager helps employees feel comfortable talking with you about their mental health struggles.
🌟 Model healthy behaviors.
Don’t just say you support mental health, but be a model for your employees regarding your mental health.
💬 Build a culture of connection through check-ins.
Intentionally check in with each of your employees. Ask them specific questions about what support would be helpful, wait for the full answer, and listen to their concerns.
