International Week of Happiness at Work - Monday 20 to Friday 24 September
International Week of Happiness at Work is a holiday that’s all about bringing happiness back into the workplace. If work is part of our daily lives, then one of the best ways to live a happier life is through being happy at work.
Happiness in the workplace encourages a culture of positivity and inclusion, and this promotes job satisfaction for all employees. Supporting disability inclusion in the workplace supports all employees, and companies with strong disability inclusion programs have better access to talent and better employee retention.
Disability inclusion strengthens the workforce, supports diverse workplaces and builds morale and helps all employees do their best work.
Workbridge can support jobseekers and employers by providing a range of free employment support services for both job seekers and employers, individually tailored to suit every individual’s needs.

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
60% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
