Wellbeing Live Lunch - Combating Loneliness in the Workplace
Loneliness isn’t just something older people feel and it is fixable.
Human connection is an integral part of a thriving and resilient professional environment, especially in professions where physical isolation is more prevalent. It is imperative for organizations to prioritise initiatives that foster connection.
Recent research by Westfield on 2024 wellbeing trends, found that the Gen Z workers, aged between 18 and 24 years, are the most affected by #WorkplaceLoneliness.

A beautiful couple of days, but I'm lucky to be able to work from home.
With having mobility difficulties, I'm housebound in this weather. I can't even get down the path to a car! Better stay in the warm.
Do take very good care out there, especially as it melts and gets slushy and icey.
If you struggle to manage, it's safety first. Employers will be understanding and flexible if they are made aware, and you're not just having a snow day ❄️⛄️ 😉. #empoweringjane #workplacewellbeing #bridgingthegap
It's the little things that make such a big difference.
What a lovely gesture from one of our service providers. Who doesn't love a biscuit with a cuppa, especially when they're not feeling on top form? #empoweringjane #workplacewellbeing #bridgingthegap #customerservice

It's cold outside
Are you working from home?
Are you working in a safe temperature?
According to Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992, the recommended minimum temperature in a workplace should be at least 16°C, or if the work involves rigorous physical exertion, it can be 13°C.
We know that we are all experiencing the energy cost crisis but your health is important. We can't be at are best health or work wise if we are freezing.
If you are keeping just one room in the home warm, you should definitely be working in that room.
If you can't afford to maintain a safe working temperature, you might want to consider returning to working in the office, (if your employer offers flexible or hybrid working), even if this is temporary.
A couple of other tips are to keep doors and curtains closed, get those thermals on and have hot drinks. #EmpoweringJane #WorkplaceWellbeing #BridgingTheGap
