Zain KSA Launches Mental Wellness Initiative for Employees

Through the initiative, and by giving heightened attention to mental health, Zain KSA seeks to establish a positive work environment, instil a safe and comfortable space for employees, and achieve enhanced career productivity. It comes following an unprecedented phase of mental health challenges and a new norm imposed by the Covid-19 pandemic, with numerous companies and organizations focusing on mental health awareness in preparation for the coming phase.

"BE WELL“ will encompass a series of activities including granting special access to employees to the globally popular "Headspace“ application, a pioneering application for meditation and mental consciousness, in addition to offering free mental health consultations to staff in cooperation with one of the region's leading entities to help them overcome exhaustion and issues such as anxiety, sleep and eating disorders, and more.

Vice President Acting Human Resources at Zain KSA Loluwah Saad AlNowaiser remarked: "We consider our employees to be our most valuable asset, and their mental wellbeing is among our top priorities, given its crucial role in attaining positive career experiences and developing creative skills. As such, we are keen on continually developing our work environment to be the first choice among young professionals.“
