It’s safe to say that Covid has fundamentally changed the world of work, especially when it comes to wellbeing. This session focuses on rethinking workplace mental health.

Using drink and drugs to cope with life could happen to any of us. We’re only human. Hear from someone who’s been through it and discovered that work and recovery can go hand in hand. The session also covers revisions to the rail industry standard for testing safety critical workers for drugs and alcohol.

Domestic abuse may happen at home, but in this session you’ll learn why it’s a workplace issue, what our industry can do, how to identify its signs, and the part we can all play to make a stand.

On the 20th of January 2021, the unimaginable happened and one of our colleagues didn’t return home. Mark Newns speaks of his experience trying to help people cope with this very real trauma and what was done to safeguard everyone involved.

So many things contribute to our mental health. To help us all better understand what’s going on in our heads, the team at Jacobs talk about their mental health tool that assesses your state of mind and provides suggestions for growth.

To close Rail Wellbeing Live 2020, John Halsall reflects on the event. Rob Stephenson considers the power of role models in transforming workplace cultures. Finally, Mick Cash shares his deeply personal experience of poor mental health, in the hope that his story will help others.
