Help for businesses to support staff through covid challenges
The well-being of employees at businesses across the Harrogate district will be under the spotlight next week.
A meeting is being held to help businesses understand how they can support staff, both working remotely and in person, as the coronavirus crisis continues.
Harrogate District Chamber of Commerce will be hosting the event, with four speakers giving their advice. Among them is Emily Snaith, HR advisor for the 200-strong workforce at CNG, who will explain the measures taken by the company in the last year to look after its employees.
She will be joined by Laura Brett, head of fundraising and promotion at Starbeck-based Wellspring, who will look at the impact of poor mental health on a workplace, as well as outlining the work done by the charity to support local businesses.
Also speaking are Steve Ellis from Prosperis Ltd, focusing on returning SME employees to full productivity, and Phil Holdsworth of AurumGold, looking at the impact of financial stress and how employers can support their staff with money worries.
Sandra Doherty, CEO of Harrogate District Chamber of Commerce, said:
The meeting takes place on Monday, March 8 at 6pm and is open to any local businesses to attend. For more information or to book a place, visit the chamber's website.
