Wellbeing at the
heart of Three
Wellbeing isn't just a buzzword; at Three we
believe that we have a responsibility to make a
real difference to our people's lives, and have
implemented a number of benefits and tools to
foster a culture of better wellbeing, every day
H
ere at Three, we know that
our people are our best asset,
and we are committed to
creating a wellbeing offering
that will enable them to bring their best
selves to work, but also support them
through hard times. To best meet this
challenge, we ensure our wellbeing
programme is evidence-based and
advocated from the top.
Our wellbeing programme is rooted
in four pillars: physical; mental; financial
and social, following the industry bestpractice
holistic view of the person.
Physical
This pillar refers to the total health of
our people; whether that's related to
sleep, diet, nutrition or medical care.
We understand that for our people to
be at their best and feel well, they have
to be well, and so we provide a range
of benefits and resources to help them.
These include always-on access to
a digital GP for consultations and
on-site fitness classes in our Head
Office, helping our people make time
for exercise in their busy lives.

" During a really low part of my
life last year I decided I needed
support and remembered Three
offers us access to LifeWorks.
At no stage was I made to feel
silly or ashamed. I felt safe,
secure and supported. "
Our initiatives help people's physical,
mental, financial and social health,
providing support during tough times
Mark Redmond
CHIEF PEOPLE OFFICER
" We know that the wellbeing of
our people is hugely important.
We have developed our wellbeing
strategy and initiatives firstly,
because it is the right thing to do,
and also because we recognise
that people who feel supported
and recognised, will be successful. "
Mental
Mental wellbeing is a key priority for us
at Three. We want to play a leading role
in breaking down stigma and reiterating
to our people that it's 'OK not to be
OK'. We want them to feel empowered
to speak up if they need support, and
our leaders to foster an environment for
open and honest conversations.
Three's commitment to raising
awareness of mental health and wellbeing
is well-known through our proud
partnership with Samaritans. Guidance
and tools from the charity are often
provided to our people to help them
take care of their own wellbeing and
feel more able to support others'.
In addition, we offer all employees
unlimited access to the Headspace
app, as practising mindfulness has
been scientifically proven to reduce
stress and promote resilience.
We've also trained 60 of our colleagues
in mental health first aid, so they can
signpost support to those who need it.
Finally, our EAP service, LifeWorks, is
available anywhere, anytime.
Financial
We understand that finances can be
somewhat of a taboo topic, and financial
wellbeing is magnified even more at the
