Last Friday, the CJ Mac team took some time out for R U OK? Day ๐
We kicked off the morning with a toolbox brekkie before heading out for some go-karting and lunch together โ with plenty of laughs and a bit of healthy competition along the way!
R U OK? Day is an important reminder for our team.
Many of our crew spend extended periods working away from home, away from their families, friends and usual support networks. When youโre living and working alongside your workmates day after day, it can be easy to keep things to yourself when something isnโt quite right.
And we know that, particularly among men, speaking up and saying โIโm not OKโ doesnโt always come easily.
Days like this arenโt just about having some fun away from the job. Theyโre also about building stronger relationships across our team and breaking down some of those barriers, so our people feel comfortable checking in on each other, having a conversation when something doesnโt seem right, and reaching out to their teammates or leaders when they need support.
We had a great day, plenty of laughs and, judging by some of the driving on the go-kart track, a few people who might be better off sticking to telecommunications! ๐
A good reminder that asking โR U OK?โ shouldnโt be something we do just once a year. ๐
