Workforce Wellbeing: Beyond the pandemic and into the future
Created: 14/04/2022As the pandemic enters its 3rd year and some of the restrictions on day-to-day life are lifted, the reality is we still live in extraordinary and challenging times.

At work, services are striving to catch up with backlogs which continue to stretch even further a workforce who have delivered over and above for the past few years.
