We are committed to supporting workforce wellbeing. Wellbeing can be defined as a state of being comfortable, healthy, or happy.
We want to support the sector to work within the Code of Ethics for Museums:
Abide by a fair, consistent, and transparent workforce policy for all those working in the museum, including those in unpaid position
We want the sector to mirror their commitments and actions to support wellbeing in their communities and support the wellbeing of those that work in and with their museum.
We hope these resources help individuals and provide guidance so that leaders, line managers and supervisors can create a wellbeing culture.
