Ben Automotive Industry Charity

It is National Stress Awareness Day and here at Ben we know only too well that work can be stressful place at times. Most of us won’t ever be able to fully remove stress from our lives, it seems to be part and parcel of being human. However, it’s the level of stress we experience and how we deal with it that means the difference between coping or it turning into a bigger issue. Have you taken our stress test yet? https://lnkd.in/gWJeG95X Ben is here for those who work, or have worked, in the automotive industry and their family dependents so do let your employees know about us. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch via our free and confidential helpline: 08081 311 333 or use our webchat at www.ben.org.uk. #StressAwareness #Support4Auto #Automotive

Today we're sharing an article about sexual harassment at work, written by one of our partners, byrne·dean, workplace behaviour and culture experts. This article will form part of a series of content from Ben's partners that we believe will be useful to employers and their people. From 26th October, a new legal duty will be enforced, meaning all UK employers face legal consequences if they fail to take reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment in their workplace. You can read more about how to tackle this issue in your workplace in this article. https://bit.ly/48lQgIe #Automotive #Support #Partners
