Your new staff wellbeing and communications platform

With an emphasis on helping staff to feel supported, connected and rewarded wherever they are, LifeWorks brings employee perks, wellbeing and community resources together under one seamless online platform.

As you log in, a personalised news feed will deliver wellbeing content based on your personal and anonymous preferences, as well as the latest community news and opportunities from RGU. The newsfeed also allows you to share your successes and be proud of others as we work together to deliver the university’s strategy.

“Every member of staff was invited to the platform via their RGU email. If you need help getting onto LifeWorks, or have misplaced your sign up email, then contact staffbenefits@rgu.ac.uk.”

In addition to the personalised news feed, an entire ‘Perks’ section offers you a massive range of savings on everything from discounts on Apple products and designer-clothing retailers to money off Deliveroo, hotel bookings and fun days out with the family. There’s even a place to suggest your own perks, allowing you to inform LifeWorks of the kind of brands or offers you would like to see on the platform.

Julie Skinner, Resourcing and Benefits Specialist at RGU, says: “We’ve launched this easy-to-use online platform as part of the university’s commitment to supporting your mental, physical, social and financial wellbeing. It can be accessed from your computer or taken with you in the palm of your hands by downloading the user-friendly Apple or Android app.

There’s a wealth of resources designed to improve your mental, physical and financial wellbeing, including a 24/7 confidential employee counselling and wellbeing helpline to support you with any legal, family, work or financial concerns. Take up challenges to improve your mental or physical health in a fun way, and earn points that you can put towards real, tiered rewards for a job well done.

LifeWorks wouldn’t live up to its name if it didn’t support you with articles and opinion pieces on family, health, money, work and life in general. Whether you need advice on becoming a parent or improving your work relationships, the site has content to help you there too.

This feature-rich platform is available to you free of charge as an employee at RGU. Take full advantage of the site by heading to rgu.lifeworks.com to feel supported, connected and rewarded wherever you are.
