THE UK’s first CALM zone on a construction site has opened at Southall Waterside to support employees’ mental health.
CALM, a charity, has joined with Berkeley Homes, catering firm Bon Appetit and KIND snacks to create the zone at the former gasworks redevelopment site.
It will provide a quiet break-out area for workers to have down time, escape everyday stress and find out about support services on offer.
Damian Leydon, operations director at Berkeley West Thames, said: “Everyone should be able to come to work and go home happy – and we are delighted to be working with CALM to ensure this.”
