Every year the International Stress Management Association (ISMA) runs a campaign to raise awareness of stress around the world and improve the ways in which stress is managed in the workplace and in our personal lives.
With this year's theme being "Campaigning to reduce stress and improve wellbeing", we sat down with Thistle Group CEO, Sophie Long, to discuss how she deals with stress.
At Thistle Group, we strive to build a supportive team culture through a hybrid working model, bringing together an in-person office setting to support individual development and growth; and a healthy work life balance to engage in activities that support employee mental and physical health.
Thistle employee reward packages includes private medical cover, and we offer an employee assistance programme that offers 24/7 confidential counselling support, including stress management. We also participate in wider group social events and charitable activities to challenge us and help make a difference where we can.
