What Our Clients Said

"It’s important for me that my staff have a place where they can receive confidential and impartial support. Health and wellbeing are a paramount part of our business strategy. We know that these interventions have helped to improve overall wellness and happiness. In this case, we have potentially avoided a very serious and difficult situation for both the member of staff and the company, so the health checks delivered by WorkSmart Wellbeing have been, in this case, potentially life saving. My team work extremely hard for the company so giving something back to them is important to me and makes them feel valued

"Paul has a genuine passion for what he does. Having worked with him over several years, I’ve seen his client centred approach first hand. He combines in depth knowledge, a solution focused approach and an ability to communicate with people of all levels and backgrounds and as a result, I can highly recommend WorkSmart Wellbeing to you as a business."

Dave AlmondHealth and Safety Consultant

WorkSmart Wellbeing coordinated and delivered a staff health questionnaire to establish my employee's needs and preferences. It was useful to highlight the steps that needed to be taken to address themes. The results were presented in an understandable, but professional report, with recommendations at the end. I was delighted to see that the health and wellbeing of staff within school was very good, with only a couple of areas that needed a little work. The two workshops that the trainer, Paul, delivered were informative, interesting and gave useful techniques for my staff to utilise to improve their wellbeing. With Paul's background and knowledge of the challenges faced by teachers, I would recommend him to any school who want to make staff welfare a priority.

We were so impressed by what WorkSmart Wellbeing were offering we decided to run it for our own staff. They began with a workplace health questionnaire to identify any specific stress points in the business which we could improve, as well as looking at ways we could generally improve staff health and wellbeing. We’ve since introduced regular health checks, and one to one coaching to ensure staff are happy, motivated and committed to the centre, hence delivering a fantastic service to our diverse range of clients. We believe this service is incredibly beneficial to any organisation regardless of size and type of business, which is why we are now offering it to our corporate clients.

David GermainHead of Centre at The Anderton Centre

We started our journey with WorkSmart Wellbeing with our management team, where we discussed our needs and they tailor made a package to suit us. Initially this was for health checks and time for all the management to meet with them to discuss anything health related, for example stress, alcohol, diet, exercise etc. These initial sessions were so good we extended the invitation to all staff and we had a 98% take up for the health checks. Since then we have offered some staff a tailor-made package to support them for specific needs and the feedback from these individuals has been very positive. Everything that happens in these sessions is totally confidential and no details are shared with the Head Teacher, giving the staff the confidence to openly discuss any concerns whether they are work related or not. This September will see the launch of the school’s Wellbeing Champion programme, as they start their focus on wellbeing for all staff in school. A whole staff questionnaire was sent out following the health checks to ask specific questions about how work affects individuals wellbeing, there were some great comments for management to consider and changes and discussions have taken place to try and improve on taking care of the staff in school. Paul's (the consultant) help and guidance in this has been fantastic, he is always at the end of the phone or email to ask questions. On some visits what was planned wasn’t a priority and Paul has been accommodating to individual needs to support the Head Teacher and staff without any problem. We are excited to see what the next academic year will bring, new exercise classes, building on the work of the Wellbeing Champions to name a few. Thank you WorkSmart Wellbeing from everyone at Intack Primary School.

WorkSmart Wellbeing have been working with us over the course of this year to support staff with their wellbeing. We have had several sessions: healthy eating, alcohol and its impact, exercise and its impact, sleeping and impact, stress awareness – signs and symptoms, relaxation, time management. We also offered 1-1 sessions over 2 days where staff could go and have a health check and discuss changes they wanted to make to their lifestyles. This included weight, blood pressure, body composition and a conversation about any problems, confidentially. A further 1-1 was offered to evaluate impact. Many of the staff have made positive changes (e.g. changes to their eating habits, exercising more, using strategies to manage their time better, cutting down on sugar, the use of apps to support with sleeping at night etc.). It means that I can now have conversations with staff about how they are supporting their own wellbeing. I thought that I was well informed on managing my wellbeing but I have learnt some valuable things during the sessions. I feel that this approach has been so much more effective than any other approach I have tried in the past. If a one off incentive is given, it often either gets taken for granted or loses its impact as soon as it’s over. This approach also means that staff can be accountable for their own wellbeing and can make positive changes. It is also very similar to the program that we will be running with the children and it has helped to ensure staff have the correct knowledge to deliver this! I am really happy with Paul’s (coach) delivery and knowledge on these topics. He is professional and approachable and is flexible in delivering different topics to suit your needs.

The presentations that WorkSmart Wellbeing delivered were an overwhelming success where over half of the buildings staff were in attendance. The feedback which both John and myself have received has been outstanding from staff members, stating they would be happy to accept your offer of one to one consultation at a later date. As PCS Learning Reps we would be happy to work with you again as this has proved to be our most successful Learning at Work Day to date.
