While the energy industry has historically concentrated its efforts on physical health and safety protocols, there has been a growing recognition of the pivotal role mental health and wellness play in overall worker wellbeing and operational success. Although mental health and wellness are crucial issues in their own right, they are also inextricably linked to and greatly influence the effective implementation of physical health and safety practices. By prioritizing mental health alongside physical safety measures, companies can foster a more holistic and sustainable approach to creating a productive and resilient workforce.
