Dear Secretary,
Please see below your May update on the Employee Assistance Service for the school community from Spectrum.life.
Wishing you all a Happy Workplace Wellbeing Day ahead of Friday! Hopefully, your school community will enjoy the content we have put together for that this week. A reminder that we are hosting a session today live on the Wellbeing Together Portal in conjunction with Workplace Wellbeing Day.
An employee will need to be registered on the Department of Education’s Wellbeing Together Online Portal to view that session. Register here, if not already signed up: https://wellbeingtogether.spectrum.life/login?org=ylVIIU17.
However, we are also running further sessions on Friday April 29th which are open to everyone and available via a separate link outside the Wellbeing Portal. See attached a poster entitled WWD 2022 to share with employees with clickable link to the content which they will need to go to on the day to view to view the live stream.
And now on to May, below are some key dates for May, aligned to the HSE Health Promotion calendar. Also attached is a May poster for the Wellbeing Series so you can see what events are running. Below as always you will find related content for you to share with the school community to promote the range of wellbeing resources they have access to.
