Deepening the Dialogue on Mental Health at Work

At Sodexo, we prioritize mental well-being through awareness, support, and an inclusive culture, ensuring our team's success and happiness. Treating mental health as seriously as physical health, we open the dialogue to create a mentally healthy workplace.

Mental Health Committee: Sodexo’s Business Resource Group to support healthy minds for our employees

The Mental Health Committee — Healthy Minds, Healthy Lives was formed to help raise awareness and stamp out the stigma surrounding mental health. The Mental Health Committee aims to encourage proactive behaviours by providing and promoting mental health resources and education to employees, thereby fostering a culture of empathy, and understanding with a focus on supporting psychological health and safety.

Mental Health Training

At Sodexo Canada, we are pleased to offer an internal training program called The Working Mind. This evidence-based training program is developed by the Mental Health Commission of Canada and leading Canadian mental health experts. It aims to initiate a transformative shift in the way people think, act, and feel about mental health in the workplace. Upon completion of this program, participants become certified and prepared to address mental health concerns effectively within their workplace.

Lean more about The Working Mind
Being part of the Mental Health Committee has helped me to learn more about how to better care for my mental health and provide assistance to family, friends and colleagues. This EBRG continues to play an important role in stamping out the stigma around mental health through education, peer support and promoting resources.
