Enhancing Workplace Wellbeing with our Wellbeing Programme Launch

Wednesday 30th of April marked a significant milestone in our journey towards enhancing workplace wellbeing at Tirlán. During Workplace Wellbeing Week, we launched an accelerated, long-term focus on mental, physical and social health through a variety of holistic approaches. This initiative, named OurWellbeing, aims to improve the lived experience of every employee.

Mick O’Leary, Chief People D&I & Org Development Officer, opened the event by setting the scene for workplace wellbeing at Tirlán and reaffirming our commitment to a holistic approach to our people’s wellbeing in the coming years. He introduced the new OurWellbeing programme and encouraged everyone to visit our new SharePoint site to provide feedback, emphasising that this programme is designed for you.

OurWellbeing is Tirlán’s new resource hub dedicated to enhancing the mental, physical and social wellbeing of our people. It offers a comprehensive programme that includes coaching, the Employee Assistance Programme, events, webinars, keynote speakers, leadership development and more.

The event was led by Dr Mary Collins, a Chartered Psychologist and Coach, who shared research-based frameworks and practical strategies for developing emotional resilience and positive health habits. In her interactive workshop, Dr Collins guided us through these frameworks and strategies, encouraging us to make a personal commitment to work on one emotional leadership skill from the following – Control the Controllables, Appreciation and Gratitude, Love and Compassion and Move.

Dr Collins was then joined on stage by Peter Ryan, a Mental Resilience Advocate and Paralympian, who shared his incredible story of resilience and how he has applied these practices in his own life. His inspiring journey highlighted the importance of mental resilience and provided practical insights for everyone to relate to and incorporate into their own wellbeing journey.

This event is worth watching back as it offers valuable takeaways for everyone. It is a crucial part of our OurWellbeing programme, which aims to address the inevitable challenges of life and support our employees in building healthy routines.

We encourage all employees to engage with our new OurWellbeing programme, visit the new SharePoint site and provide feedback to help us tailor this initiative to better serve you. Together, we can create a healthier, more supportive workplace for everyone.

Have your say on our recent ELT Roadshow and help shape future events

The ELT Roadshow provided a fantastic opportunity for our people to connect and hear directly from our Leadership team. However, we recognise that there is always room for improvement. In line with our value of “Adapt to Grow,” we welcome your feedback on the ELT Roadshow to help shape future events.

Lastly, the annual ELT Roadshow would not be possible without the support of our local site managers, local HR business partners and the Employee Engagement Network, a dedicated group of individuals across the business who ensure the success of the Roadshow at each of our sites. Our sincere thanks go out to each of you.
