To recognise World Mental Health Day today, we created a Gratitude Wall for our employees and encouraged everyone to write something they were thankful for. We had a fantastic turnout, with plenty of thoughtful messages shared. Our team expressed gratitude for both professional and personal things, some of the highlights being:

‘The chance to continuously develop myself further and further’

‘A job where the people are a pleasure to be around’

‘Using our EAP app for great recipes’

‘Living positively to drive success’

Bringing our team together in this way helped to remind us how powerful gratitude can be in creating a positive mindset and a sense of connection at work. It was a simple but meaningful way to pause, reflect and appreciate the good around us.

This is just one of the many ways we’re putting wellbeing at the heart of our workplace. We also focus on a different wellbeing theme each month, such as fitness, mental health, nutrition, or even money management, and we bring these to life through shared resources and interactive workshops that help everyone stay motivated and inspired. Furthermore, we understand that life can be demanding both in and outside of work. That’s why every employee has 24/7 access to our Employee Assistance Programme, which offers confidential advice, guidance and professional counselling whenever it’s needed.

At Step Change Outsourcing, we’re proud to support our people and continue building a workplace that values wellbeing and gratitude, helping everyone feel appreciated and motivated every day.
