HR Safe Space: Virtual Keynote Mental Illness Awareness
As HR professionals, we experience a unique set of challenges in our careers that are best understood by our peers. We are so focused on supporting others that we often don't get to take care of ourselves! This can lead to feelings of compassion fatigue, frustration and burnout.
Enter HR Safe Space. A place to come together with peers from all across Atlantic Canada to build connections and foster resilience through sharing common challenges and strategies to overcome them. A place to breathe, a place to "turn off" when you otherwise need to be "on" all day.
Drop in for the sessions that resonate most with you, or come to every single session. The format is lightly structured and is intended to be here as and when you feel you need it. So take some time out for you, just for you, and know that there is always a safe space to land when you need it.
Mediation Training for HR Professionals
Mediation is a tool that helps people to resolve workplace interpersonal and professional issues in such a way that the relationship at stake remains intact.
In workplaces issues may arise as a result of any of the following subjects – the inter-generational workforce, cross-cultural diversity, gender, race/nationality/ethnicity, language, organizational change, new management, existing management, interpersonal style, professional approach, technology, and many others.
Designed specifically for HR Professionals, this program is based on a blend of the Facilitative and Transformative models of Mediation which teach participants how to guide parties in the workplace to negotiate based on their individual needs and shared interests with the goal of repairing underlying relationships enroute to settlement. This program is unique in that it is entirely focused on workplace mediation specifically through the lens of the HR function. You will not spend time covering broad techniques that are not relevant from an HR perspective.

CPHR Atlantic Presents: Avoid Retention Landmines with Employee Financial Wellness Tools
DATE: | November 14th 2023 |
9:30 am to 11:00 am |
CHAPTER: | Webinar |
LANGUAGE: | English |
Financially-stressed employees are 2x times as likely to be looking for a new job. It's a retention landmine- but it doesn’t have to be that way!
It can cost between 150% and 400% of an annual salary to replace mid-level to high-level employees, so turnover can be a fiscal nightmare for any company, especially when costs are already so high. Employees leaving the company can also lower the morale of the entire group, especially if a few people are leaving at a time, or turnover is becoming more frequent.
A pension, group RRSP, or health benefits are important to help employees make the most of their resources, but these alone will not create the financial wellness employees need.
EAP programs are great for employees in crisis, but it won’t help the average employee improve their finances. And spoiler alert- even senior employees and those with higher salaries get into financial pickles! Even presentations from the pension provider won’t cover the most frequent financial pains like cash flow and debt.
More than half of employees are likely to be interested in leaving their current employer for one who cares about their financial health; it’s even worse for those who are stressed out by their finances. According to PwC, 73% of financially stressed employees say they would be attracted to another employer that cares more about their financial well-being compared to just 54% of non-financially stressed employees.

- How to evaluate your workplace’s financial education needs
- Strategies to get CEOs and other leadership on board with financial wellness efforts
- How to leverage existing programs to show your care about your team’s financial health

- Why financial wellness must go beyond EAP programs to be impactful
