For The Greater Good
In this pandemic, morality will come into play in many instances and there must be a measure of trust in the employer/employee relationship. If the employee has been asked by the public health authorities to isolate either at home or in a sanctioned facility, he/she is doing so due to...

WORKERS’ VIEWPOINT
BWU Radio Podcast
The buzz word on everyone’s lips these days is ‘wellbeing’ - wellness, wellbeing and its importance to our lives and livelihoods. We have definitely seen a shift towards being more cognizant of the importance of good mental health. There has been an awakening of sorts in our capacity for change, developing different ways of thinking and a new-found resilience. People are also trying to adapt both mentally and physically, paying more attention to that illusive ‘work life balance’. The theme for WORLD WELLBEING WEEK 2022 is Loneliness - the experience of feeling lonely, its effect on our mental health and how we can play a part in reducing loneliness in our communities. We often equate loneliness with being alone, but you can be lonely yet surrounded by people. It is a feeling and not necessarily a physical state of being. As you find ways to celebrate your ‘Wellbeing’, we encourage you to do your part by reaching out to those around you who might be experiencing loneliness. You never know, sometimes it is the simple things that can make a difference in someone else’s life. The Frank Walcott Labour College virtual campus has placed an emphasis on mental health awareness and other topics that are of interest to you.

Fathers play a strong leadership role in moulding and nurturing the characters of our children. They are the rocks needed to build a firm foundation. Cheers to those fathers and father figures who provide solid rocks for our children and families. We celebrate you today and every day. Happy Father's Day! The Frank Walcott Labour College virtual campus is also building a strong foundation with the education of workers.

“You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference and you have to decide what kind of a difference you want to make.” ~ Jane Goodall Exactly one month ago today the Hon. Colin E. Jordan, Minister of Labour, Social Security and the Third Sector; the BWU's General Secretary, the Hon. Toni Moore, President General, Mr. Shawn Knight, other members of the Executive Council and staff; MP for St. Michael West, the Hon. Christopher Gibbs; representatives of the Barbados Employers’ Confederation, Youth Groups and schools from the catchment area all gathered for a tree-planting exercise at Solidarity House. If we all make a promise to plant at least one tree annually, it will make for a much greener planet and a happier place to live. The Frank Walcott Labour College virtual campus always builds awareness on the topics that are of interest to you, so REGISTER ONLINE for one of this week's courses (see link in bio) or send an email to fwlabourcollegebwu@gmail.com.
