R U OK? Day 2023: I’m Here, to Hear

We understand that a supportive workplace culture goes beyond just addressing professional concerns. It involves caring for the well-being of your team members.

Today, 14 September 2023, is R U OK? day. Which reminds us of the importance of making "R U OK?" a part of our everyday conversations. This year, R U OK? is calling on all of us to let the people you care about know you're here, to really hear them. You don't need to be an expert to start these conversations; all it takes is a willingness to connect.

Building trust is key. Regular chats about life's ups and downs can help create an environment where your team feel comfortable opening up. Remember, the timing and setting matter too. Whether it's during a break, a shared meal, or a social activity, choosing the right moment can make your conversations more meaningful.

If you would like further information and resources to help you initiate these important discussions and connect with your teams, reach out to AdvisoryHR today, because a simple conversation could change a life.

R U OK? is a national charity committed to encouraging regular, meaningful conversations to support those facing difficult times. Learn more about their mission at ruok.org.au.
