How do we facilitate promotion at senior levels for minority groups? How do we create more culturally relevant wellbeing initiatives? How can we build, reinforce & support relationships in different contexts? Lack of trust I researchers? @Lilith_Arev shares
Lots of opportunities for future research including experienced of non-binary at work, the impact on live-in carers, the point at which managing employee performance is experienced as bullying. Cross cultural studies on LGBTI+ How do we create safe spaces? @Lilith_Arev
@KenishaLinton shares that there has been an increase in females entering the police workforce, but there is still evidence of gendered division of labour which limits career trajectory for senior women @wwkresearch
Isadora also shares this sense of invisibility, particularly for those who identify as non binary @wwkresearch
One of our fundamental needs is to be seen... it's so devastating how cruel we are to each other :(
Isadora shares that in order for LGBTI+ to feel safe they need to not look like they are LGBTI+ in Chile. What does this even mean? There is a lot of gas lighting... @wwkresearch
Northampton General Hospital NHS Trust interventions to address bullying and harassment at work is great learning for other NHS Trusts to also take these initiatives forward (incl the learning) @wwkresearch Thank you Stephanie Garforth for sharing this case study!
Stephanie Garforth shares a number of interventions to address wellbeing in NHS including freedom to speak up guardians, respect & support campaigns, peer support and critical incident support, counselling via Occ Health, H&WB lead and a D&I specialist @wwkresearch
NHS staff work in emotionally demanding roles, busy & stressful environments, under resources and underpaid which has a significant impact on wellbeing and on the organisation eg. reduced services shares Stephanie Garforth @wwkresearch
