Mental health is critical to human health and wellbeing, yet mental health problems are more likely to go undiagnosed and untreated than physical health problems.

Organisational risk management has broad applications, from mitigating financial risk to recognising and managing risks in safety, quality, health, legal liability, and the organization's impact on the environment. Risks to and from an organisation's employees fall within the scope of risk management, typically with a focus on reducing the risk of accidents, injuries, or illness and putting controls in place to prevent employee theft or fraud.

The concept of burnout is complex and the employer’s duty of care responsibility to assess and mitigate foreseeable risk is often misunderstood, even by well-meaning responsible employers.

Years of experience have shown us that every customer experience is unique and that each customer is the final arbiter in everything we do. We don’t measure success by how rigidly we comply with our processes. It’s whether we make a meaningful difference to the person we’re serving. In other words, our customer experience metrics can’t be just about doing things right. They have to measure whether we’re doing the right thing.
