Complete 5.1.5 Execute and deploy strategies or programs surrounding engagement and well-being.

The development of a staff recognition and events committee with departmental representation commenced in May 2025 (Q2) with a focus on boosting morale, strengthening engagement and reinforcing our positive, high-performing workplace culture. The committee will support local business/vendors through their employee focused initiatives, including our annual recognition lunches and holiday gift selection(s).

In addition, employee wellness and well-being is supported through various offerings such as EFAP, wellness initiatives and circulation of Homewood's Lifelines monthly newsletters.

The staff recognition and events committee is actively planning and rolling out initiatives for staff. Each month, the Health, Safety and Wellness team develops a wellness theme that is supported through all staff communications and activities. 

Feedback is sought on all initiatives to gage effectiveness with staff. 

Continuing to monitor and action monthly initiatives.
