The health and wellbeing of our people is as important as their safety and our philosophy is for our people to return home safe and healthy at the end of the day.
A healthy culture at work both energises and motivates people, and we want our workforce to enjoy working at FM Conway.
We understand that mental wellbeing is about wellness rather than illness and is not merely the absence of a health condition. Creating an environment that supports and promotes the wellbeing of people is ethically responsible, whilst also ensuring that we meet the legal health and safety requirements to provide an environment that is both physically and mentally safe and healthy.
FM Conway currently has over 100 Mental Health First Aiders who are always ready to support our colleagues and be there to chat, whatever their worries or concerns may be.
FM Conway is a proud supporter of the Lighthouse Club, a construction industry charity that offers support and guidance on mental health and wellbeing issues.
By collaborating with other organisations and businesses like the Lighthouse Club and Kent Supported Employment, we hope to help raise awareness around mental health and share support resources with the aim of improving wellbeing across the construction community.
In a mentally healthy workplace, people at all levels have a shared vision of, and commitment to, positive mental wellbeing. Work demands are realistic in a way that balances the needs of the people and the business, and do not pose an unreasonable risk to the mental wellbeing of individuals.
Everyone in the workplace feels comfortable to speak openly about mental wellbeing and mental health conditions, without fear of stigma or discrimination. This creates a culture of respect and inclusivity.
