  • 🌟 𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧’𝐬 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐮𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐍𝐞𝐬𝐭! 🌟 Today, we’re celebrating the incredible women who inspire, lead, and make a difference, both within WorkNest and beyond through the GRC Group. As part of our IWD celebrations, we were delighted to host an inspiring session with Steph Peltier, a happiness and brain-hacker, on how to define events in our lives and process them in our minds. Steph shared powerful techniques on meditation and daily affirmations, helping us cultivate positivity, resilience and a mindset for success and happiness. At WorkNest we encourage our colleagues to take care of our wellbeing and create healthy habits, which we believe is key to empowering individuals to thrive and ‘accelerate action’. Today’s talk was a fantastic reminder that small, daily, intentional changes can have a profound impact on our happiness and overall mindset. A huge thank you to Steph for her insight and to everyone who joined us! 💜 #InternationalWomensDay #IWD2025 #AccelerateAction #WorkNest #HarnessYourHappiness #Meditation #DailyAffirmations #WellbeingAtWork

    𝗥𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗮𝗻 𝗠𝘂𝗯𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗸! 🕌🌙 Today marks the start of Ramadan, a time of reflection, fasting, and prayer for Muslims worldwide. As an employer, showing understanding and offering accommodations during this 30-day period can make a big difference for your Muslim employees. Here are some simple ways you can help: 🛋️ Offer additional rest breaks, adjust duties, or allow employees to work through lunch to accommodate fasting. 🏡 Enable Muslim employees to work from home temporarily to conserve energy and better engage in worship during breaks. 🙏 Allocate a quiet room for prayer – remember, enforcing a ‘no prayer in the workplace’ policy could be considered indirect discrimination. For more tips on supporting your team through Ramadan, download our 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗲-𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗴𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗲 here: https://ow.ly/GJz650V621I #Ramadan #RamadanMubarak #workplacesupport #inclusion #inclusiveworkplace #employeewellbeing #HR #HRadvice
