Southeastern OTI Education Center - NC State & The University of Tennessee

Workplace safety and mental health are two crucial components of a healthy and productive work environment. However, they are often treated as separate issues, with little consideration given to their interconnectedness. This has led to a growing recognition of the need for a more holistic approach that considers the impact of mental health on workplace safety, and vice versa.

Join us TOMORROW for the "At a Crossroads: Where Workplace Safety and Mental Health Intersect" webinar where we will examine how mental health and well-being impacts worker safety and will introduce resources available to assist businesses with developing a safety program that includes the consideration of mental health hazards.

We all remember the airplane safety briefing, “If you are traveling with someone who requires assistance, secure your mask first, and then assist others.” Employee Motivation in the workplace is no different. In the absence of self-motivation, it becomes increasingly difficult to motivate a team of employees or co-workers. Join us on Feb 15th for the "Secure Your Mask First: Motivating Employees in a Post-Pandemic Era and in the Age of Quiet Quitting" webinar. During this webinar, we will discuss reasons for lack of motivation and various motivation theories to aid efforts and help achieve a better work/life balance.
