April
April celebrates World Health Day and it’s important to recognise all the elements that make up a healthy life.
That’s why we’re spending April focused on finances, as science has proven a direct link between financial stress and negative well being.

April Theme
Finance
While it is commonly known that research shows us that more money does not necessarily equate to more happiness, what is only now being discussed in scientific circles is research that shows that high levels of financial stress has a negative impact on people’s well being.
Financial security is closely linked to emotional security and research shows an increased feeling of stress, anxiety and depression can be caused by a variety of financial stressors including income loss, uncontrolled debt, unexpected and increased living.
This is why we include finance as one of our core EAP offerings, helping people to understand their money, set financial goals and feel under control.

Awareness days in April
Time to raise awareness
Let’s take a moment to highlight the importance of awareness days
World Health Day
In 2024 the World Health Day theme is ‘My health, my right’ recognising the right of everyone, everywhere to have access to quality health services, education, and information, as well as safe drinking water, clean air, good nutrition, quality housing, decent working and environmental conditions, and freedom from discrimination.
World Immunization Week
April 24 to 30 April highlights the collective action required to provide more adults and children protection from vaccine-preventable diseases. From the 15 century people across the globe have been preventing illness through exposure, and while vaccines have all but eliminated many illnesses, 1 in 5 children still go unvaccinated.
World Day for Safety and Health at Work
The annual World Day for Safety and Health at Work promotes the prevention of occupational accidents and diseases globally. It asks us as employers and employees to think about our role in stopping deaths and injuries on the job. From safe working environments, health legislation and emerging risks we all have a role to play.
World Heart Day
World Heart Day (29 September) is an opportunity for everyone to stop and consider how best to use ❤️
