Maintaining Mental Wellbeing in Challenging Times HSER Connect • March 2022 In the past 2 years we have seen many workplace challenges dealing with the effects of COVID.

Save the Date! HSER Connect • March 2022 Frontline HSERs are important change agents. If armed with the right tools and enabled by the right culture, HSERs can be enhanced as leaders and can serve as the eyes and ears of the industry at the frontline. They enable the exchange of ideas and concerns about HSE matters and are empowered to drive on-the-ground innovative solutions.
