Promoting breast screening in your workplace
Workplaces play a crucial role in supporting health and wellbeing. Learn more about our workplace resource kit – developed to help you promote breast cancer screening in your organisation.
Why promote breast screening in your workplace
Supporting health initiatives – such as free breast screening – fosters a culture of care and wellbeing in your workplace.
Breast screening is also key to detecting breast cancer early, which leads to less invasive treatment, shorter recovery times and a higher chance of survival. This, in turn, means a better chance for you to help retain women in the workforce and reduce the impact of breast cancer on your organisation.
By promoting breast screening, you can also:
- Support staff health and wellbeing
- Empower your team to lead healthier and happier lives
- Help reduce the risk of late-stage diagnoses and death from breast cancer
The workplace resource kit helps organisations promote breast screening awareness – and encourages staff to attend a free breast screen.
The resource kit includes:
- Information about breast cancer and the importance of early detection
- Practical ways for employers to promote breast screening
- Content to distribute to staff, including emails, newsletters and social posts
- Suggestions for health promotion activities in your workplace
