We recently shared our May 2021 e-newsletter to our mailing list - this month's focuses on the UK's continued reopening and examines the role that we can play in contributing to a successful return to the workplace for organisations and individuals in the coming months.

US2U Consulting can help you plan your team's return to the office or workplace - whether it be structuring a phased return for your team in line with priorities, or re-energising your team around your goals for the rest of 2021 or beyond. We can also provide Mental Health resources to alleviate anxiety or concerns surrounding this unique situation, including Mental Health Training for Managers who can then act as a support for their team, and coaching to help individuals develop their personal resilience.

A case study of our Mental Health and Stress Awareness Training with client ASAMS Ltd has been featured in a leading industry magazine, while this episode also includes our latest podcast episode, and more.

Plus, we celebrated our 15th birthday in April! Read our e-newsletter below:

US2U Consulting E-news May 2021: Reopening and Returning to the Workplace

We are pleased to have seen our successful working relationship with Great Yarmouth based client ASAMS Ltd featured in Wind Energy Network Magazine, in a story which focuses on the Mental Health and Stress Awareness training we have been delivering with the metals-testing business.

The unprecedented and relentless challenges posed by the pandemic have presented risks to positive mental health, both at home and in the workplace. Over the last few months we have worked with our client ASAMS to provide a Mental Health and Stress Awareness programme to staff, which has benefitted individuals and the business.

We worked with the company to identify the needs of their team, and potential pressure points within their specific job roles. An up to date Mental Health Policy was created and training provided to recognise the signs of poor mental health, as well as presenting a practical framework for improving such a situation - both in oneself and with colleagues.

As reopening continues, many factors will contribute to a successful return to the workplace. For guidance on how to overcome any potential mental health challenges associated with what will be another significant shift in behaviours and work routines, contact US2U Consulting as we can provide practical support in this area.
