Dear Colleagues,
We are sending you this special e-bulletin to let you know we are changing the focus of Healthy Working Wales (HWW) to create an enhanced digital offer for employers and less tailored, direct support from our team of expert Advisers.
Our new offer to employers will include:
- Learning and development tools to support employers to build their skills and capacity in relation to health and wellbeing.
- Continuing to revamp and add to our website content providing guidance and resources on all aspects of health and work.
- Roll out of our online health and wellbeing survey tools, developed with Cardiff University, and the generation of individualised reports to guide employer action.
- Guidance to support employers in evaluating progress towards health and wellbeing goals.
- A new partnership with Business Wales to combine our health and wellbeing expertise with their skills and digital know-how in providing professional e-products to businesses while also expanding our reach across Wales.
The changes have come about due to a realignment in priorities agreed with the Welsh Government from now onwards. Please see the Ministerial statement here. As part of the changes, we will no longer be able to deliver the HWW awards programme and so it is now coming to an end after many successful years.
We appreciate that this will be disappointing news for our award holders who have shown great commitment to the health and wellbeing of their staff over many years.
We hope that our planned new products and e-learning will enable employers engaged with HWW to continue to build on their hard work to date, while also reaching out to all employers with valuable guidance and resources.
The HWW team remains committed to using our health and wellbeing knowledge and skills to support employers to develop and sustain environments, policies and cultures that promote good health.
Please make sure you are signed up to our e-bulletin to receive the latest news and notifications from us as new products are launched.
More information on the changes and our new offer can be found here.

Thanks,
The HWW Team
