Well done to Plymouth City Council who have achieved their Wellbeing at Work Silver Award!
 

Plymouth Social Enterprise Network

PSEN are hosting a Webinar called "The Future of the Workplace

"We're really pleased to welcome Guest speakers Peter Holbrook from Social Enterprise UK and Rose Marley from Coops UK. Join us for this event to talk about, celebrate and share learning about the 'new normal' and how actually, for us in the social enterprise sector, it's not so very new at all.

Research tells us that they are more likely to pay the real living wage, they are more likely to have support systems in place for mental wellness, they are more likely to have diverse supportive leadership teams. In this new world we need to reimagine the way workplaces function and social enterprises are already steps ahead in it."

Workplace Movement Toolkit

Workplace Movement is a digital toolkit, designed to enable workplaces to support and improve the health and wellbeing of their staff. Workplace Movement aims to reduce sedentary working, encourage movement and activity and support employee wellbeing, which in-turn contributes to positive business benefits.
 
Whilst there are numerous workplace health and wellbeing providers, Active Devon’s approach to workplace wellbeing is driven by supporting and encouraging movement and physical activity and the positive impact this can bring. Workplace Movement provides a range of digital health and wellbeing resources focused on physical activity, including a Workplace Benchmark Tool, Staff Wellbeing Survey and Digital Resource Library.
