During his tour to South Africa, Professor Justin Green, President & CEO of Global Alliance, was hosted by the Public Relations Institute of Southern Africa (PRISA), and made his formal debut. The hybrid session, which took place this Monday afternoon, January 22, complemented the ongoing Global Alliance Health & Wellbeing Month well. Its central issue, “PRISA caring about the wellbeing of Practitioners,” was discussed.
As a result of the particular diMiculties they face at work, the culture of the workplace, and the wide range of experiences and information they are exposed to, communication professionals frequently have greater rates of poor mental health than those in other professions. According to the World Health Organisation, anxiety and depression account for an estimated 12 billion missed working days yearly, making these mental health conditions commonplace around the globe.
“In recognition of Health & Wellbeing Month, the Global Alliance has planned a number of events, realising the influence on the PR sector. With this eMort, professionals will get a chance to take a vacation, spend time with friends and family, and look forward to a healthier 2024”, said Professor Green.
The Global Alliance is providing free access to downloadable white papers, articles, podcasts, and world news pertaining to health and wellness throughout the month of January. Ms. Mothapo, President of PRISA, encouraged all professionals to reflect more deeply on their health and well-being.
The workshop was helpful providing insightful viewpoints on taking care of oneself, helping co-workers, and promoting the wellbeing of the community only in South Africa but around the globe. It oMered communicators a chance to learn from one another, exchanged stories, and cooperated to create a more positive and encouraging work atmosphere.
