Join Brightwork on September 5th for the free "Navigating Cancer in the Workplace" workshop.
This free workshop will help you to:
- Understand the emotional, physical and psychological needs of employees with cancer
- Approach these situations with knowledge, empathy and understanding by providing you with insights and management strategies
- Create the right framework to manage employees with cancer
- Cover topics such as sensitive communication, adjustments when returning to work and coping strategies that employers can use to better support their employees.
While the session focuses on supporting a colleague affected by cancer, much of it is relevant to other health conditions, and also to those supporting a family member or friend through cancer
Maggie's Forth Valley Head, Yvonne McIntosh, a Cancer Support Specialist, and their Clinical Psychologist, Dr. Natalie Rooney, will host the session alongside Shan Saba.
