Course Description
What is a healthy workplace? You might think it is one in which the physical environment is safe for all employees or one in which there is a level of overall health among the employees. And you'd be right. However, there is another less obvious but equally critical meaning of the term healthy workplace. In this case, it refers to the social environment of an organization, and the culture that it is based on. You might know of this by another name; people call this corporate culture, organizational culture, or workplace culture. The culture of an organization is a reflection of the social environment that is created. And if you have a healthy workplace culture, you will have motivated and productive employees who understand and share the values of the company. In this module we will look at the characteristics of a healthy workplace culture and identify reasons that workplace culture is critical to the successful operation of any organization.
