Entain is a top listed company for workplace mental health

Entain aims to attract, engage and retain the best talent globally, bringing the best thinking to the business from inside and outside of the sector.

The company continuously works to create an inclusive environment that supports the wellbeing of its colleagues, while supporting them to grow and learn throughout their Entain career. This commitment to employee wellbeing has been formally recognised in the CCLA Corporate Mental Health Benchmark, which names Entain as one of the UK’s top listed companies for workplace mental health.

"It reflects our ongoing commitment to creating a culture with employee wellbeing at the beating heart of our business. We’re proud of the progress we’ve made and even prouder of the people making it happen. Well done to all our Entainers who work hard to make workplace wellbeing a priority everyday," said Entain.

Entain Group Head of Wellbeing Stella Gavinho commented: "To be listed again as one of the UK’s top companies for managing and reporting on mental health is an outstanding achievement. A testament to the work of our wellbeing team and champions for creating and promoting an environment where all our colleagues feel supported and welcome in our organisation."

Evaluating how companies manage workplace mental health

The CCLA Corporate Mental Health Benchmark is designed to evaluate how listed companies approach and manage workplace mental health based on their published information. It provides institutional investors with an account of a company’s management and associated disclosure practices on mental health, thereby acting as an important accountability mechanism for investors. Annual benchmark assessments allow stakeholders to track a company’s absolute and relative progress over time.

The aims of the benchmark are to:

Ensure that corporate efforts are directed towards activities that positively support the mental health of people at work.
Encourage greater disclosure on workplace mental health and enhance understanding of the business risks and opportunities presented by mental health among private sector employers.
Equip investors and other stakeholders with a tool for assessing the effectiveness of corporate management of business risks and opportunities associated with mental health across global operations.
Define important expectations on workplace mental health, providing investors with an accessible way to understand and evaluate corporate practices.

Supporting a high performing, energised, productive workforce

When it comes to wellbeing, Entain is committed to helping employees feel healthy and happy both at work and at home. That’s why Entain created the Well-Me programme. Through this programme, employees gain access to seminars and support from wellbeing professionals, to ensure their physical and mental health are in great shape.

Entain's Well-me strategy is designed to help employees make positive changes to improve their physical, mental, and emotional health, in turn creating a better performing, energised and productive workforce.

The programme is championed at the top of the business and is designed to help make positive changes to improve physical, mental, and emotional health, in turn creating a better performing, energised, and productive workforce at Entain. To achieve this, Entain provide tools, training, and targeted support through its Think-well, Live-well and Work-well programmes.

The company understands the link between mental health and diversity, equity and inclusion and how a diverse and inclusive environment contributes to foster a supportive workplace for all employees. Entain remains fully committed to creating a workplace where colleagues from all backgrounds can thrive and do their best work. Protecting the well-being and mental health of its people is a business imperative.
