Each year, World Mental Health Day reminds us that taking care of our minds is just as important as taking care of our bodies.
At Ruby Energy, we know that the fast-paced energy sector comes with its pressures and demands. That’s why supporting the mental health of our employees isn’t something we do just once a year, but a part of who we are every day.
We encourage our team to speak honestly about what’s going on, whether it’s stress or simply one of those tough days. Even a simple “How are you really doing?” can make a world of difference.
Beyond conversations, we provide access to our Employee Assistance Programme, ensuring everyone has access to professional support for a wide range of personal and work-related issues. This includes counselling, mental health guidance, financial advice and legal support to help improve overall wellbeing.
Our EAP is designed to help employees navigate challenges both at work and at home, supporting their health, resilience and productivity. All services are strictly confidential, ensuring a safe space for every to seek help when its needed.
Supporting Well Being at Work
Make honest conversations and regular check-ins part of your routine to build a culture of care. Offer clear well-being resources and schedule opportunities for staff to share experiences so employees feel valued and supported.
Take time to recharge. Build these small habits into your day:
- Take regular screen breaks to rest your eyes and mind.
- Get outside for fresh air to boost your mood.
- Stay hydrated and eat well to maintain focus.
- Stretching your body can help relieve physical tension.
At Ruby, we know that a supported team is a stronger team.
By creating a workplace where people feel cared for and listened to, we can help our employees perform at their best and feel valued every day.
