MATTERS ARISING

The Director of Human Resources (DHR) reported that the viability of providing onsite childcare had been explored and was not considered feasible for the CoL. She advised that the majority of the workforce was a commuting one and childcare vouchers were available.

The DHR reported that the provision of free flu jabs had been explored but would not be cost effective for the CoL as these were available elsewhere.

The DHR reported that in relation to mental health at work managers were now being trained to recognise the signs of stress and were being trained on how to raise this with staff and provide guidance on how to address it. It was agreed that a report on this should be brought to a future meeting.
