R U OK? Day 2022. An immensely important day for so many reasons.
This year, we reached out to our teams and encouraged them to participate in an anonymous survey, asking that they reflect on the past 12 months. The survey asked our team to reflect on how they maintain positive mental health and the strategies they’ve implemented to navigate any challenges.
Today, our teams were invited to listen in and hear the core R U OK? day message – ask, listen, encourage action and check-in, provided by our National Operations Manager, Jessica Chesser. This package included information about resources for personal and professional use if the team or someone they know isn’t OK. The specific video included covers RU OK? recommended strategy to ask and respond.
R U OK? Day Cookies were distributed to the offices in the form of a sweet, sugary pick-me-up. We hope the BSE Community enjoys munching away on a cookie as they connect and check in with their colleagues, family, and friends.
Thank you to TeamBSE for taking the time to participate in the survey, and for being open and honest in the conversations today, and being encouraging and having R U OK? day conversations, every day of the year. Thank you to Jessica for putting together such an informative presentation.
