JOSH Ashton is helping the team at Leasing Options with mental health equilibrium by becoming the broker’s first mental health first aider.
Josh is on hand to provide a safe place to talk about any challenges staff are experiencing and will sign post to relevant sources to secure additional support.
In addition, Josh will use his training to observe behaviours and proactively identify and approach colleagues that maybe struggling but not feel able to seek the help they need.
Covid has had a huge impact on everyone in so many ways, we want to make sure that we support our colleagues in adjusting to the ‘new normal’ and provide support for any staff who find elements of life, post-lockdown, challenging.
Mike Thompson, COO of Leasing Options
Mike added that Manchester broker was committed to supporting colleagues and their mental health. Recently the company teamed up with LifeWorks, a Total Well-being Solution, to provide advice and support on a variety of issues including coping with change, future proofing finances and tips to deal with worry and anxiety.
Mike went on to say:
Our priority is making sure our colleagues know that we understand how they feel and are here for them and want to help, anyway we can.
