to support staff to take more responsibility for their own health and wellbeing so that they can reach
their full potential in the workplace and live healthy and balanced lives. This includes mental and
physical health, financial, family and personal growth.

5.9.1 Objectives
Our workplace health and wellbeing policy looks at how work and work surroundings may affect an
individual’s health and also how their health may in turn affect their ability to cope with work. The
emphasis is on preventing the development of workplace health-related accidents and disease and
empowering staff to promote and protect their own health. Current measures include but are not
limited to:

• Pre-employment screening to determine the health status of potential employees taking
into account the demands of the job in question

• Other services such as sickness absence management, manual handling advice and
training, advice on compliance with legislation, provision of appropriate Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE), etc.

Efforts to improve employee health fall into three broad categories which require sustained
commitment from across our entire workforce:

• Improving the work environment and conditions of work

• Focusing on culture and health promotion policies within the organisation and ensuring
they are implemented
