At go2HR we’re proud of our ongoing partnership with CMHA BC. Together, we provide industry-specific mental health resources, support, and training programs to the tourism and hospitality industry. This May, from May 6 to 10, we celebrate CMHA Mental Health Week. We encourage all industry employers to participate by prioritizing their employees’ mental health and wellbeing.
Why is Employee Mental Health Important in Hospitality?
In our industry, exceptional service hinges on happy and healthy staff. By fostering a psychologically safe workplace, you create an environment where employees feel valued, supported, and less stressed. This translates into a positive experience for your guests, staff, and ultimately, your bottom line.
The Power of Kindness: This Year’s CMHA Theme
The 2024 theme, “A Call to be Kind,” emphasizes building compassionate workplaces. This means:
- Supporting your staff: Regularly check in, recognize signs of stress, and offer genuine concern.
- Creating a safe space: Encourage open communication and address concerns promptly.
