HOW WE COMBAT LONELINESS AT WOrK
It’s mental health awareness week, and this year the theme is loneliness. Work can be a lonely place these days – so here are some ideas to help you feel more connected with others in your workplace.
In the US, 3 out of 5 people say they experience loneliness. Data suggests that this is an issue here on our side of the pond, too, with 1 in 4 people in the UK reporting feeling lonely at least some of the time. That’s 17 million people. A lot, right?
So, how do we reduce this number? The answer is right here at PLATF9RM. Welcome to the wonderful world of coworking!
You are ten times more likely to stay in a job for friends over a pay rise. Most people can relate to staying in a job they’re not keen on simply because they’ve made some good friends. There’s a reason that toxic workplaces often describe themselves as “families”. It’s because their employees are more likely to stay loyal if they’re part of a tribe they care about.
After one too many months of being trapped inside, it’s natural to crave community. Whether or not you’re a member of PLATF9RM, we welcome you to get out there and join some likeminded people.
Make the most of our Friday beers! There’s no better way to start the weekend than with a cold drink and some good conversation.
Join Kim from Unlost Co. to unplug and connect with other PLATF9RM members in the great outdoors.
