The foundation of well-being: How and why mental health matters at Dexory
Mental health is a foundational element of overall well being. It affects every aspect of our lives, from our personal relationships to our professional success.
What’s Dexory’s commitment to employee wellbeing?
Dexory is more than just a workplace; it's a community. The company understands that fostering a supportive and inclusive environment is crucial to the mental health and overall happiness of its employees. We do this by:
Creating an open and inclusive culture
Dexory promotes an open and inclusive culture where employees are encouraged to communicate openly about their mental health. This approach reduces stigma and fosters a sense of belonging.
Mental health awareness
The company shares and promotes such movements as Action for happiness, which supports mental health awareness via focusing each month on a specific topic of mental health and of wellbeing and in turn each day gives a clear focus area for each individual to be able to support their wellbeing/mental health.
Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
Dexory provides access to a comprehensive Employee Assistance Program. This confidential resource offers counseling services, mental health support, and assistance for personal and work-related challenges. Alongside, financial support as this can impact on our general wellbeing.
Flexible work arrangements
Recognising that the traditional 9-to-5 schedule doesn't suit everyone, Dexory offers flexible work arrangements to help employees balance their work and personal lives effectively. This flexibility can significantly reduce stress.
Regular check-ins
Managers at Dexory conduct regular check-ins with their team members. These discussions provide an opportunity for employees to express any concerns they may have about their workload, stress, or work-related issues and we have several of our team who are Mental Health First Aid trained which supports both our managers and team wider.
In a world where the line between work and personal life is often blurred, Dexory recognises the need to prioritise mental health for its employees. By fostering a culture of support, offering resources like the Employee Assistance Program, and promoting open communication. This is the start of our commitment to employees and their wellbeing and we will continue to implement more strategies and programmes in order to better our commitment as we grow.
