Managing Stress - Solutions for Burnout in the Workplace
Podcast Available Now

Leaders and employees face multiple stressors and distractions each day at work. When stress lasts long enough at work or home life it can become distressful and burnout may develop. While stress can harm us physically, when it becomes burnout, it harms us emotionally and mentally, negatively impacting productivity.

In this 14-minute podcast, the hosts will identify how the workplace can be a source of burnout or can reduce burnout and become a healthy environment. This podcast episode will enhance awareness of burnout for leaders encouraging them to respond with better self-care and care for employees. The discussion focuses on practical steps leaders can take toward prevention and reduction of burnout.

For more resources on managing stress check out resources in the Monthly Toolkit.

LIVEwell Online Program Under Construction

Last month, we announced the City is in the process of transitioning to a new wellness platform with a number of new and improved features with an expected go-live date this summer. This transition means that effective March 31, 2024, the Limeade online platform, and the Limeade One mobile app, are no longer available. The wellness platform is just one aspect of the LIVEwell Program, and the other components of the program will remain available during the transition period.

During this transition, you will still be able to access the LIVEwell website, LIVEwell.la, where you can:

Sign-up for weekly online fitness classes and monthly online cooking demonstrations
Access information about discounts on fitness trackers, gear, and gym memberships
Find resources available through the Employee and Family Assistance Program (EFAP)
View current and past LIVEwell Monthly newsletters

Be on the lookout for additional activities like an upcoming team challenge and special on-site fitness classes that will take place in the coming months. We will share additional details about the new wellness platform closer to the go-live date.
