The County Government Workers Union is excited to announce the launch of our comprehensive Mental Health Support Program, designed specifically for county government employees and their families.
In recognition of the increasing importance of mental health in the workplace, CGWU has partnered with leading healthcare providers and mental health professionals to offer a range of support services at no cost to our members.
Program Benefits Include:
– Free counseling sessions (individual, family, and group)
– 24/7 mental health hotline support
– Stress management workshops
– Workplace wellness seminars
– Online mental health resources and tools
– Peer support groups
Dr. Sarah Kimani, Lead Psychologist for the program, emphasizes the importance of mental health support: “County government workers often face high-stress situations and demanding workloads. This program ensures they have access to professional support when they need it most.”
The program is available to all CGWU members and their immediate family members. Services can be accessed through our dedicated helpline (+254 700 000 100) or by visiting any of our partner clinics across the country.
Mental health challenges affect millions of Kenyans, and workplace stress can significantly impact both personal well-being and job performance. This initiative demonstrates CGWU’s commitment to the holistic welfare of our members.
To access these services, members simply need to present their union membership card at any participating facility. The program also includes referral services for specialized treatment when necessary.
We believe that supporting the mental health of our workers ultimately benefits the entire community through improved service delivery and worker satisfaction.
