We’re thrilled to reflect on the success of CrossCountry South Africa’s first-ever Employee Wellness Week, which took place from June 9-13, 2025. This special week was entirely dedicated to recharging and reconnecting with what truly matters: employee well-being.
The days brought colleagues together through activities designed to nurture physical, mental, and emotional health with events that were engaging, inclusive, and filled with opportunities to connect, reflect, and recharge. Here’s a closer look at the highlights of the week.
Step Challenge
Team members embraced a bit of friendly competition as they tracked their steps throughout the week. The challenge motivated participants to stay active, energize their routines, and maybe even earn some bragging rights.
Live Wellness Discussions
The team hosted a series of insightful, interactive sessions with discussions that dove into essential topics such as mental health, managing stress, nutrition, and self-care. The conversations were practical, informative, and fostered open, honest dialogue about how we can prioritize well-being in our lives and our work.
Guided Fitness Session and Team Lunch
To wrap up the week, the team gathered for an energizing fitness activity followed by a wholesome, nutritious lunch. This event wasn’t just about physical well-being but also about building connections and celebrating a shared commitment to health and community.
A Company-Wide Commitment to Wellness
Although the spotlight was on South Africa, the positive energy of the week resonated throughout the firm. It reaffirmed our collective dedication to building a culture where wellness isn’t just encouraged but prioritized for everyone.
When we take care of ourselves, we’re better equipped to contribute to our teams, excel in our work, and live fulfilling lives beyond the office. The South Africa team set a powerful example by championing well-being with intentionality and inclusivity.
To our South Africa colleagues, thank you for your enthusiasm, inspiration, and leadership. Your fresh perspectives remind us what’s possible when we come together to focus on health and happiness.
Together, we’re paving the way for a future where wellness and work go hand in hand, creating a stronger, healthier, and even more connected CrossCountry community.
