Our people drive BNY Mellon forward, and we want them to feel a sense of purpose and belonging in work and in life. One important focus is creating an environment that’s both high-performing and human – so we all thrive together.
With a stark rise in mental health challenges among adults and kids around the world, we’ve taken a purposeful approach. As one of my former employers often reminded me, “Hey, we call it ‘work’ for a reason,” but we also strive to provide our people with experiences and resources to support them and help make #LifeAtBNYMellon the best it can be.
We do this in many ways, but these are a few of my favorites:
1️⃣ Expanded mental health benefits and brought on Spring Health to help us enhance personalized services while increasing accessibility.
2️⃣ Collaborate with mental health industry leaders including One Mind at Work, MindForward Alliance and Disability:IN.
3️⃣ A growing cohort of 350+ trained colleagues around the world who make up our Mental Health Champions.
We even introduced panoramic rooftop lounges atop several offices for teams and friends to enjoy coffee, lunch and a view during the workday. I know I’ve benefited recently from a few fresh-air breaks to clear my head after meetings and hope many others will too.
