AN AWESOME MESSAGE I CAME ACROSS

URGENTLY NEEDED…
Not BLOOD
But,
An ELECTRICIAN,
to restore the joyful current
between people,
who do not speak
to each other anymore…

An OPTICIAN,
to change the
outlook of people…

An ARTIST,
to draw a smile
on everyone’s face…

A CONSTRUCTION WORKER,
to build a bridge
between neighbors…

A GARDENER,
to cultivate good thoughts…

A PLUMBER,
to clear the
choked and blocked mindsets…

A SCIENTIST
to rediscover compassion…

A LANGUAGE TEACHER
for better communication
with each other…

And Last but not least,
A MATHS TEACHER,
for all of us to relearn how to count on each other…

Spread lots of love, positivity and smiles today. Tomorrow might be too late

Have a wonderful day

WHEN YOUR WORK FAMILY IS YOUR SUPPORT AWAY FROM HOME WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE FACING A SERIOUS ILLNESS?

For many, work is more than a paycheck. The average full-time American employee works over 40 hours a week at work, so it comes as little surprise that a majority of employees (56%) report spending more time with their “work family” than they do at home. One survey, which sampled 1,000 full-time office workers ages 18-65, found that having a familial relationship with co-workers boosts productivity and feelings of well-being in the workplace.

Another critical element of having a “work family” is they can be a support system if you or someone you love develops a chronic disease, such as cancer. How can co-workers lend the most effective and meaningful support without being intrusive?

Creating an inclusive and positive environment for an employee coping with a serious medical condition is essential to the overall well-being of a workplace, but coworkers and employers need guidance. On December 4th, Kathy Flora and Rebecca Nellis discuss findings in a recent survey commissioned by Cancer and Careers that explored the experiences of 1,000 US working adults, employed full-time, who work or have worked with someone being treated for a serious condition. They will explain how workplaces can evolve to support and accommodate people juggling work and diagnosis, the importance of fostering a positive and supportive work environment, and the key roles managers and supervisors can play. Some survey highlights include:

• 88% of working adults have concerns about their ability to support a co-worker with a serious and/or chronic medical condition

• Of those who currently work/have worked with someone diagnosed with cancer, 90% have concerns about offering support

• 59% of working adults are not confident that their managers and supervisors know how to support an employee with a serious and/or chronic medical condition

• 89% of workers think management could have done more to be supportive of their co-worker with a serious and/or chronic medical condition
