Developed in partnership with the fundraising initiative Walk for Wellbeing, the guide aims to equip hospitality businesses and individuals with effective strategies to enhance employee mental health and wellbeing. According to Hospitality Action’s latest survey 76% of hospitality workers report experiencing mental health challenges.
Mark Lewis, chief executive of Hospitality Action, said: “Hospitality is a dynamic and exciting industry, but it comes with its own pressures. We want to help employers prioritise the wellbeing of their teams, and this guide offers practical solutions and actionable steps to support employees - which are relatively easy to implement - to create a culture that supports the mental health and wellbeing of all, no matter what area of hospitality they work in.”
Hospitality Action’s Employee Assistance Programme offers 24/7 confidential advice, financial guidance and counselling services. The guide highlights key steps to support employees such as tips on promoting a positive work/life balance.
The guide is now available through Hospitality Action’s website and provides an essential resource for hospitality employers looking to support their teams.
