May Day is a traditional Spring holiday celebrated in many Northern Hemisphere countries. Mayday is a traditional signal sent out by people in distress. One is observed on May 1st, the other will be observed in this month's Voice.
Kind of. We're making it "workplace maydays" month here at the Voice! Which means we're providing solutions to some common customer S.O.S. situations (like how to kick your News up a notch), we're sounding the alarm on potentially perilous predicaments (coworker conflict - yikes!), and we're even getting inspired by customers who come to the rescue of their communities (good on you, Ramsgate RSL)!
This month join us in saving the day from workplace maydays!
Cheers!
Vince
Hello from a Jostler!
Spotlight on...
Australian customer Ramsgate RSL launched an Employee Volunteer ‘CARE Program’ as a way to give back. CARE, or 'Community Awareness and Respecting our Environment’, has become the framework that underpins how they help their community. In just over a year since the program's inception, they've assisted over 40 different charities, sporting groups, and other organizations who may not have received support otherwise. And they're using Jostle to celebrate and share the good work they're doing! From Activity posts to Event listings, their many good deeds don't go unnoticed or unrecognized. Keep up the excellent work!
