Today is R U OK? Day 💛
Yes, we brought doughnuts… because honestly, Kirra doesn't need an excuese for a little treaty treat. 😂🍩
But we also wanted today to mean a little more than morning tea and asking “R U OK?” once a year.
The reality is, none of us are OK all of the time.
We all have stuff going on,at work and outside of it. Stress, family, relationships, finances, health, grief, pressure, or things that nobody else knows about.
One day a year isn’t enough to check in with the people we work beside every day.
So while today is a great reminder to start the conversation, at Remo we want to be better at having those conversations regularly, not because the calendar tells us to, but because looking out for your mates should just be part of how we work.
Check on the quiet one.
Check on the loud one.
Check on the one who is always making everyone else laugh.
And check on the one who always says, “Yeah mate, I’m fine.”
You don’t have to fix anything. Sometimes just genuinely asking, listening and giving someone the chance to talk is enough.
We talk a lot in construction about looking after each other physically and making sure everyone goes home safe.
Mental health is part of going home safe too.
So today we’ll eat the doughnuts 🍩, have a laugh, have a chat and remind ourselves to keep checking in long after R U OK? Day is over.
💛 Ask today. Ask tomorrow. Ask whenever something doesn’t seem right.
