Skills for Care is focusing on providing support to create happy and healthy workplaces during May and June.
Throughout the months, Skills for Care will be sharing information and ideas to help social care employers, managers and their teams create and be part of a happy and healthy working environment.
Skills for Care’s research has found that respecting and valuing staff, investing in learning and development, promoting inclusivity, providing compassionate leadership, embedding organisational values and celebrating achievements all go a long way to improving employee happiness.
As part of their work through May and June, Skills for Care will be providing further information and inspiration on each of these factors, sharing examples from providers and people working across the social care sector.
Skills for Care is also asking as many people as possible to get involved by sharing what they do to support the wellbeing of themselves and their team. You can share your insights using #HappyHealthyWorkplace and tagging Skills for Care on Twitter, LinkedIn, or Facebook.
More information on the campaign and how to get involved can be found at: www.skillsforcare.org.uk/HappyHealthyWorkplace
