Business SA’s first webinar to help local businesses navigate through the coronavirus crisis drew almost 2000 registrations last week, so the organisation is running another to ensure companies can maintain a healthy and happy workforce during COVID-19 restrictions.
The webinar will provide practical tips for businesses owners that will help them and their workforce thrive in the digital world.
“These are challenging times for the business community, both financially and mentally,” Business SA chief executive Martin Haese said.
“COVID-19 is having an impact on the mental health of both employers and employees.
“As part of our new webinar series on business resilience, Business SA has partnered with Employers Mutual Limited to support businesses experiencing significant uncertainty and hardship in the current environment.
“COVID-19 related closures have either sent many offices to work from home and others to Centrelink. These might be kitchen counters, dining tables and shared spaces with partners, children and even pets.
“This webinar will provide practical, actionable advice to help employers with the challenges of keeping their staff engaged, productive and connected while dealing with the challenges of working from home.”
Business SA’s Maintaining a Healthy Mind in Your Workplace Webinar will help employers:
UNDERSTAND the psychology of feelings, emotions and the stress of COVID-19.
COPE with and manage their own mental health, when either their business has closed, or their services have been drastically reduced.
KEEP their staff engaged, productive and mentally healthy.
NAVIGATE the resources and available support through these uncertain times.
