The last six months have been strange for us all, with working-from-home and new demands on our jobs in situations which we never would have thought possible a year ago.
The last six months have been strange for us all in different ways, whether it be working-from-home or additional demands on our jobs, encountering circumstances we never thought possible a year ago.
It is estimated that 1 in 6 people in the past week experienced a common mental health problem. Mental health is about how we think, feel and behave and includes our emotional, psychological and social well-being; and so, at Specsavers we believe that looking after people’s mental health is just as important as physical health. […]
At Specsavers, we aim to make a positive difference to the lives of all and investing in our people and ensuring they are able to develop new skills and behaviours is an approach that’s always benefited our business and customers. Â
We know that recovering our business and getting back to record-breaking performance is going to be the job of a lifetime.
The situation in the UK can rapidly change, as we have seen most recently with the UK Government delaying some of the lockdown measures that were previously scheduled in the coming weeks.
Looking after our colleagues’ mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic is a top priority for us here at Specsavers. Our focus is making sure everyone still feels connected while working from home. Â
Although government guidelines are easing some of the measures put in place, safety remains our top priority.
