On the LNG Canada Project, we use the World Health Organization’s (WHO) definition of Health being a complete state of physical, mental and social wellbeing. In aspiring to be the Safest Project on Earth, we are committed to ensuring that there are programs and services that cover all aspects of our workforce’s health, including their mental health.
Mental wellness means feeling good about who you are, having balance in your life and in your thinking, while responding constructively to life’s highs and lows. This includes the ability to enjoy life and bounce back when things get stressful or overwhelming. A complete state of physical, mental and social wellbeing should include our mental health and wellness. It is not a weakness or character defect, it is simply one part of us in being and staying overall healthy. Our mental health is closely tied to our physical health. Positive mental health leads to happier, healthier lives, decreases risk of long-term illness, lowers blood pressure and increases our ability to manage stress.
MIND your Health
In 2021, a mental wellness campaign “MIND your Health” was launched on the LNG Canada Project. As part of this campaign, all staff were encouraged to learn how to support and make their mental wellbeing a priority in their everyday.
This page allows us to offer you more information and resources for a larger variety of mental wellness topics. All the links and websites have been vetted and contain helpful information. Please note that while the internet is a great source of information, if you visit other websites, ensure they are reputable and overseen by a professional organization for your own wellbeing and safety.
We hope you will find the information and resources listed below helpful. We encourage you to explore and learn about your own mental wellness and also learn to support others in your life. If you have any comments about this page or are looking for additional assistance, please email LNGC.mental.wellness@fluor.com
