Innovations

Thanks Will

Some topical things at the moment that have worked well for us (as a result of reviewing absence data) have been:
- trained mental health first aiders on site
- trained mediator on site
- linking with an occupational health organisation to offer a back pain and lower limb programme

Thanks Will. Could you please elaborate on : linking with an occupational health organisation to offer a back pain and lower limb programme. Which occupational health organisation have you'll linked for back pain. We do have these complaints often

We do have Yoga sessions offered to our employees once a month.

Very location-dependent, but I used to work for an osteopathic college with a large clinic in central London. We set up partnerships with local businesses, where their staff could attend at discounted rates (and given they were low anyway because the treatments were student-led, this meant that patients were paying about £20 or less for an appointment). No idea where you're based, but something similar could be seen as very supportive.

Thanks Nina. Appreciate your feedback
