Stronger and Happier!
Recapping a year of Health & Wellness initiatives
At Jebsen & Jessen, nurturing the well-being of our employees is paramount. In 2020, we established Health & Wellness Committees in every country we operate in to foster a ground-up movement that supports our people’s professional and personal growth. This has grown into a highly anticipated annual programme centred on five key pillars: #Environmental, #Financial, #Mindfulness, #Physical, and #Social. Together, this creates a comprehensive wellness experience for our workforce.
Looking back at 2023, these are some of the highlights that our people enjoyed!
#Environmental
We actively engaged in initiatives to combat plastic pollution through organised beach clean-ups, tree-planting activities, visits to recycling centres, and participation in recycling initiatives across our operational countries.
#Financial
We continued to prioritise financial literacy by hosting workshops and talks aimed at enhancing employees’ financial wellness, building upon previous years’ efforts in this area.
#Social
The highlight of 2023 was undoubtedly the JJ Amazing Race, where teams competed in a series of exhilarating challenges, fostering camaraderie and team spirit along the way. This full-day event provided employees with the opportunity to bond outside of the workplace while flexing their physical and mental agility.
#Mindfulness
A webinar titled “Healthy Mind Toolkit: Boosting Your Mental Health,” was organised by our Health & Wellness Committees in Singapore and the Philippines in collaboration with EHS and Workplace Options. This attracted approximately 300 participants from across the region, who each gained valuable insights and practical tools for practicing mindfulness in their daily lives.
#Physical
Our calendar was filled with diverse fitness activities including Pilates, Zumba, Indoor Step, Laughing Yoga, Body Combat, Aerobics, and Aero Kickboxing, ensuring that there’s something for everyone—and that everyone stayed active and energised!
Our gratitude goes out to our Health & Wellness Committees for orchestrating an engaging and dynamic programme in 2023! We are excited for what the future holds and remain committed to advancing the well-being of our employees as one Jebsen & Jessen!
