Session supported by ISLG
While a certain amount of stress gives energy, ambition and enthusiasm which can increase performance at work, excessive stress can cause physical, emotional, and behavioural problems affecting health, energy, wellbeing, mental alertness and personal and professional relationships.
Passionate about her team’s wellbeing and an anxiety sufferer herself, Emma Dymond – Motion Rail founder and CEO, came across Forth, whose private home blood test kits check the levels of cortisol, the steroid hormone that is released when the body feels under stress.
Emma launched a 12-month cortisol testing trial to monitor and manage stress levels as part of Motion Rail's safety and wellbeing programme. Four months into the trial, Emma will discuss cortisol testing, lessons learnt and how it has benefited the Motion team.
