At DPM, wellbeing is always front of mind
It’s at the heart of everything we do for our people every day. In the lead-up to R U OK? Day, we dedicate an entire week to a range of wellbeing initiatives, with the goal of offering something for everyone. Beyond this, we have activities throughout September and all year round to help our team keep wellbeing front of mind.
This year, our Wellbeing Week included:
Health Checks
A registered nurse visited our offices to help employees stay on top of their health and identify early warning signs. Appointments included blood pressure checks, cholesterol checks, blood glucose monitoring, and lifestyle assessments. Regular check-ups support prevention, early diagnosis, and healthier habits for life.
Blood Donations
We rallied a crew of life-saving legends to head to the blood donor centre. We even had some first-time donors and some returning after more than five years! After donating, the team enjoyed a well-earned sausage roll and iced coffee — a slightly unusual combo, but a rewarding one after helping save three lives.
Breakfast Club
Our team kicked off the day together with a delicious and nutritious breakfast. Sharing muesli bowls and smoothies provided a chance to connect, chat, and start the day on a healthy note.
Yoga & Pilates
Both our offices offer weekly lunchtime yoga and Pilates sessions, a moment to pause, stretch, and recharge. Namaste!
Wellbeing Day
The highlight of the week: on R U OK? Day, both offices closed so our people could spend the day filling up their cups however they chose. Sleep in, enjoy a slow morning, hit the gym, or tackle a shopping spree — the choice was theirs.
While we have wellbeing initiatives throughout the year, Wellbeing Week is about connection and putting yourself first. From health checks and blood donations to yoga, Pilates, and personal time, our team is supported to prioritise their wellbeing in a meaningful way.
