International Self Care Day
-
Organize a Wellness Workshop: Consider hosting a wellness workshop at your office, where employees can learn about various self-care practices and techniques. This could include sessions on mindfulness, stress reduction, healthy habits, or relaxation exercises. Adapt the workshop format to suit your workplace, whether it’s in-person, virtual, or a combination of both.
-
Launch an Employees Assistance Fund (or if you already have one, remind employees about this incredible employee benefit). An Employee Assistance Fund (EAF), also known as an Employee Relief Fund or an Employee Crisis Fund, is a program which can be used to provide financial support to employees impacted by disasters, personal emergencies, and other hardships. You can learn more about the benefits of working with America’s Charities as your EAF partner here.
-
Encourage Breaks and Time Off: Promote a healthy work-life balance by encouraging employees to take regular breaks and utilize their vacation time. Emphasize the importance of rest and relaxation in maintaining overall well-being. Consider implementing policies that discourage overworking and support employees in prioritizing self-care.
