26/09/2019 Summary 45 Findings • Wellbeing levels were relatively high, and burnout was very uncommon. • Respondents were typically satisfied with opportunities for growth, team cohesion, levels of social support, feedback, and role clarity. • Job and employment-related factors that warrant greater attention included job security, remuneration, autonomy, staffing, workload, stress, communication, access to supervision, and leadership quality. 46 23
26/09/2019 Reflection 47 Worker self-care check • Designed to help workers identify whether there’s is an imbalance in the areas in which they practice self-care • Asks respondents to look for patterns in your responses. Are you more active in some areas but ignore others? Were there activities on the list that made you think ‘I’ve never thought of that’? 48 24
