Employee wellbeing UK&I

Accountability for employee wellbeing lies with the organisation, with leaders and teams, and with individuals. With this framework as our guiding principle, and as part of our core value of Safety, we strive to foster a culture that supports and uplifts our people.

Our people make a difference

Our people are committed to driving our wellbeing strategy and creating a culture of care. By actively supporting one another, we’re making AtkinsRéalis a place where no one has to go at it alone. Employees have self-started different support groups. These include, Wellbeing Champions, Mental Health First Aiders, Financial Wellbeing, Equality, Diversity & Inclusion, LGBTQ+, Neurodiversity, Enable (our disability and health conditions network), Embrace (our network for ethnic minority employees and allies) Menopause in the Workplace, Mindfulness, ParentNet, and Women’s Development. Together with our Wellbeing Council, these communities support a calendar of events throughout the year to raise awareness of a range of wellbeing topics.

Prevention is better than cure

We take a proactive and preventative approach to address workplace stressors. We understand that identifying and mitigating potential stressors before they become significant issues is crucial for creating a supportive work environment. We are committed to assessing key areas of work, including job demands, job role and workplace change, to identify potential sources of stress. Through open communication channels, we encourage our employees to provide feedback and voice their concerns. This feedback is invaluable as it helps us to identify areas for improvement and implement necessary changes. By taking a proactive stance, we can address workplace stressors promptly and ensure a healthier and more balanced work environment for all our employees.

Encouragement on the ground

We believe we all have a responsibility to support the wellbeing of ourselves and of our colleagues. That’s why we’re committed to developing the knowledge, skills and confidence of every employee to engage in wellbeing conversations. Through role modelling and story telling we aim to normalise wellbeing conversations, creating a culture of psychological safety and trust.

We are committed to the wellbeing of our employees. Our holistic framework enables us to create an environment where employees can thrive, flourish and achieve their full potential. By prioritising physical, emotional, social and community, financial, and workplace wellbeing, we empower our employees to lead fulfilling lives both inside and outside of work. We firmly believe that when our team members are thriving, our organisation succeeds. Join us in embracing a culture that fosters wellbeing and supports personal and professional growth.
