So we have launched our Mental Fitness Principles.<\/p>\n<p>The principles surround: Creating Change, Managing Stress, Sleeping Better, Moving Better, Eating Better, Enhancing Focus, Finding Meaning, Getting Help and Reconnecting.<\/p>\n<p>They will help us in our commitment to creating a safe, healthy and high-performance workplace, where the mental and physical health of employees are valued and prioritised.<\/p>\n<p>Employed adults spend more time working than any other activity during their waking hours and can have a significant impact on our mental health.<\/p>\n<p>It can be positive, giving us a sense of purpose, boosting our self-worth, and providing opportunities to connect with others. But it can also be a source of stress and anxiety and contribute to developing or worsening mental health problems.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Peggy Jackson, PPP Health &amp; Safety Manager, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can take steps to support your own well-being. Learn techniques to manage stress and stay mindful of changes in your mental health.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have created the Mental Fitness Principles, which provide ideas and advice on how to manage your mental fitness and ways of getting help if you are struggling.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn each of our projects are Mental Health First Aiders \/ Wellbeing Ambassadors who can offer a listening ear and provide details of resources that are available to you.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cReach out to your colleagues and line management, they may be unaware that you are struggling.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Often the hardest thing to do is to start a conversation on mental health. People often ask, \u2018how are you?\u2019 when greeting someone. Are we honest when we answer? Are we comfortable enough to say actually, I am not okay?<\/p>\n<p>If you are struggling with your mental wellbeing at work, set a meeting up with your line manager, prepare the things you want to talk about and be honest.<\/p>\n<p>Looking after your mental health is not something we should just do if we are struggling, or feeling low, anxious or stressed. It&#8217;s something we should think about all the time and really invest in, just like our physical health.<\/p>\n<p>To see our Mental Fitness Principles go to: <a href=\"https:\/\/sellafieldcloud.sharepoint.com\/:f:\/r\/sites\/PPPSellafieldWBSGB.720481.030\/Shared%20Documents\/General\/EHSSQ\/05.%20HSW%20Hub\/01.%20HSW%20Hub%20Standards\/Mental%20Fitness%20Principles?csf=1&amp;web=1&amp;e=8ln3IY\">Mental Fitness Principles<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/mocsl.co.uk\/out\/out.ViewFolder.php?folderid=1624&amp;showtree=1\">MoC Website: Folder &#8216;Mental Fitness Principles&#8217; (mocsl.co.uk)<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-788\" src=\"http:\/\/www.competefor.com\/sellafield\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/36\/2024\/11\/Mental-Fitness-Principles-Slide_2.jpg\" alt=\"Mental Fitness Principles slide\" width=\"4000\" height=\"2252\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We want our workforce to flourish and staying healthy in body and mind is a key part of our journey to Knowingly Safe.
