Workplace Health at One You Walsall, funded by Walsall Council, is a free healthy lifestyle service dedicated to improving the health and wellbeing of all residents across Walsall.

Their services exist to help residents make the best choices for their lifestyle, from health and fitness to emotional wellbeing.

Erodex HR Manager Deborah Bayliss comments: “As a business we were looking to engage our employees in health and wellbeing initiatives and saw the opportunity to become involved with Workplace Health at One You Walsall, in addition to the Healthy Years Ahead initiative, which works with individuals of 40 years of age and older.

“So far, we have held a workplace event to engage employees and introduce the initiatives. From this we gained expressions of interest in services offered by the organisations.

“There has been a great response and we are looking to book in a practitioner to deliver two full days of health assessments for our employees. From these we will plan future health and wellbeing sessions in the workplace and signpost to outside services and organisations”.

工程公司投资为当地社区提供重要支持

作为英国出口增长最快的中小企业之一,总部位于西米德兰兹郡的 Erodex UK 将其最新的投资重点放在了本土,以便为当地社区提供重要支持。

最近,这家航空航天工程公司在其位于海尔索文(Halesowen)和达拉斯顿(Darlaston)的两处厂址各投资安装了两台除颤器,成为当地注册的紧急除颤器使用场所。

"我们投资除颤仪和培训的原因不仅仅是为了 Erodex 员工的利益。现在,如果该地区的任何人在紧急情况下需要使用除颤器,他们可以上网查询,并看到这里有一台",Erodex 总监 Steve Rolinson 解释说。

研究表明,如果能在 3 分钟内进行电击,心脏骤停患者的存活几率就会从 6% 激增至 74%,这凸显了除颤器和在附近配备懂得使用除颤器的人员的重要性。

Erodex 投资了约 4500 英镑购买这两台设备,并为六名员工提供了由 ST Johns 救护服务机构提供的专业培训。

史蒂夫-罗林森继续说道:"虽然我们在海外取得了巨大的商业成功,但我们始终认为,成为一家有社会责任感的企业非常重要。作为一家拥有 100 多名员工的本地雇主,我们关心员工生活和工作的地方,因此我们希望在力所能及的范围内为他们做正确的事"。

在最近的投资之前,Erodex 的员工定期为当地和全国性慈善机构开展筹款活动,其中包括 3 峰挑战赛,Erodex Tooling Solutions (ETS) 的技术运营经理 Chris Grice 和一位同事为阿尔茨海默氏症协会筹款超过 2000 英镑。

Erodex 的员工通过举办 "纸杯蛋糕日 "和 "穿自己的衣服上班 "活动来支持这一倡议,共捐款约 150 英镑。公司还将在 9 月份举办 "咖啡和蛋糕 "活动,以支持麦克米伦癌症护理。

随着 Erodex 员工队伍的逐年壮大,公司也一直致力于为下一代创造机会,在英国制造协会的持续支持下,公司招聘了 4 名学徒。
