As winter approaches, so does the season of sniffles and coughs. In our recent blog post, How to Keep Your Team Healthy This Winter: Tips for Tackling Seasonal Bugs, we covered practical ways to help your team handle the challenges of seasonal illnesses.

Supporting mental health in the workplace is essential for building resilience within teams. Resilience is the heartbeat of every successful team, helping members adapt to challenges and support one another when things get tough. By fostering open conversations and implementing support systems, mental health challenges can be addressed early, helping prevent long-term absences and benefiting both the individual and the team.
Winter is coming—and with it, the dreaded season of sniffles, sneezes, and sick days. Even just one or two absences can feel like you’ve been hit by a snowstorm. Whether it’s the flu, a rogue cold, or that one mysterious cough everyone seems to catch, a little preparation can help you glide through the winter months without too much disruption (or too many tissues).
