Wellbeing
Here at Lincoln, we offer a range of health and wellbeing benefits and activities. These include on-site health checks, sports injury clinics, and flu vaccinations. You can also take part in social football, netball, running, and community events such as the Lincoln 10k.
The University provides colleagues with access to a 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme, including specialist phone line support, interactive online sessions, and an app to monitor your own wellbeing at home.
We promote an open culture at Lincoln, prioritising mental health by increasing awareness, encouraging two-way conversations, and highlighting the support available at all stages of your employment. Colleagues can attend stress awareness and emotional intelligence sessions, and also have access to mental health first aiders for instant help and guidance.
Education is at the core of our provision and we encourage our colleagues to develop and grow, whether that is through our award-winning Financial Education Programme, neurodiversity awareness sessions, or by learning new skills, such as sign language.
