November 14 2024

POSTPONED - NEW DATE TO BE ADVISED 2025

CEF is delighted to host this briefing session on the 'Healthy Place to Work®' Initiative, a forward-thinking approach designed to support organisational leaders address the critical challenges they face.

Attracting, supporting, and developing the workforce needed to deliver excellent public services has become increasingly complex.  NI’s public service leaders are contending with combinations of challenges, including:

  • Balancing the competing demands for remote vs office-based working.
  • Managing high and/or increasing levels of sickness absence.
  • Addressing challenges in performance management, productivity, and fostering innovation.
  • Striving to improve staff engagement.
  • Leading and managing the multigenerational workforce.
  • Navigating all of this while grappling with budgetary constraints and limited opportunities for workforce investment.

The Healthy Place to Work® initiative offers a holistic, cost-effective, and agile solution to support public service organisations. It moves beyond traditional approaches linked to engagement surveys to provide tailored, actionable insights that foster healthier, more productive and higher-performing workplaces. Sponsored at a senior leadership level but driven by staff, this initiative is already being piloted in several organisations in Northern Ireland and has demonstrated measurable improvements in workforce metrics across a range of sectors, both locally and internationally.

At this event, John Ryan, CEO Healthy Place To Work®, will provide an overview of the science and philosophy behind this unique approach, an insight into the Healthy Place To Work® in action and the outcomes it has been producing.
