FECAVA Newsletter • October 2024
Hello everyone,
On October 10th, we recognized World Mental Health Day and highlighted the importance of mental health, especially in our workplaces. This year’s theme, Mental Health at Work, underscored the need to address workplace stress and foster supportive environments for everyone.
FECAVA recognizes the potential workplace stress we can all experience and the importance of maximizing wellbeing in the workplace. We all have mental health, which is sometimes referred to as `emotional health` or `wellbeing`, and it’s as important to look after and be aware of, as our physical health.
One step to help this is to reflect on your work at the end of a shift. Use our End of Shift Checklist to support this and download it here to make it part of your routine.
