AUK HR Department Launch Wellness Campaign for Staff
AUK Human Resources Department (HR) launched multiple initiatives that promoted wellness and healthy daily habits among staff members. The campaign, titled, “Together We Grow Healthier,” provided employees with recreational opportunities to improve their physical and mental health.
With the goal of promoting healthy eating habits, various exercises, and community activities, the HR Department has thus far launched three workshops, one of which being “Wellness Through Mindfulness” which provided staff exercises and practices that can be done at their desks to refresh their day.
The second activity was a cheese-tasting workshop that was exclusive to campus directors and served as an opportunity to develop AUK’s workplace culture. The third activity was a collaboration with the Office of Student Life where the HR Department launched a bootcamp to encourage physical activity.
Supplementing these efforts, HR also distributed healthy snacks wrapped in biodegradable material to all campus staff members.
HR director, Paul Bassil, expressed his enthusiasm towards launching initiatives that promote healthy habits, “All our employees have embarked on this journey alongside us with determination and ambition. AUK has a distinguished work culture, and through these initiatives, our community maintains its shared set of workplace values, standards, and beliefs.”
More workshops and events will be taking place throughout the academic year that aim to increase workplace morale and reinforce AUK’s tight-knit community.
