The story behind
Keeping the world up and running - Fluke Corporation, is the world leader in the manufacture, distribution and service of electronic test tools and software. As an international corporation around the globe, Fluke relies on its remote team.

Fluke got internal wellbeing enthusiasts together to form a Mental Health Awareness Month. During the kick-off of this month, the common partnership was successfully implemented.
    Challenge
    Fluke needed a proactive mental health solution, inclusive to their diverse and geographically dispersed workforce – whether they're office-based or on the road.

    • To combat stress and promote mental health management.
    • Give their entire workforce access to mental health support
    • Measurably improve the mental wellbeing of its workforce.
    Solution
    The clay platform captures employee's needs by providing a range of interactive courses, in-the-moment exercises, and informative assessments to help with areas including coping with work and life stressors, and supporting management. At the same time, the HR and management team have a transparent dashboard overview in order to of monitor the effectiveness of all measures.
    "It's a digital-first solution that's proactive – it gives employees access to the tools as and when they need it, wherever they are in their mental wellness journey."

    The Challenge
    Like many organizations, Fluke had a remote-first team and stress-relates. But Head of HR, Sue Greenland, felt it was missing a key ingredient – proactive mental health support. "If people don't support their mental health," she points out, "it impacts their physical health, social health, and productivity." Sue needed a technology partner to hit three key criteria:

    • To measurably improve staff's mental wellbeing
    • To be data-driven, enabling to inform strategy
    • To be digital-first, accessible to a geographically dispersed workfore
    The Solution
    Clay was initially rolled out to a group during Mental Health Awareness Month at Fluke. On the day of launch, hundreds of employees signed up to Clay. In the first months, we've seen a 50% sign up rate and month on month we have a consistent engagement rate of around 20%."

    • employee participation
    • free discussion of issues

    "I've always suffered with mental health issues," said OCIO Director Danny Nicholson, "it helps having Unmind available at all times, because it's hard to tell when you're about to have a low period or a steady period. If you're like me and get the signs that you're feeling low, or are becoming more anxious or stressed, it's there and available straight away."

    Proactive boost
    Unmind was designed to proactively support mental health, providing users with digestible content on the go. "Your thoughts are crucial to your wellbeing." explains Lee Otteson, IT Platforms Manager. "It's like physical exercise – you've got to look after your mind as well. I commute for an hour every morning, so I use it then as a daily boost."

    Data-driven
    Importantly for Sue, this was all reflected in the data: "The data we've got from Unmind has proven invaluable," she said. "We've identified focus areas across three aspects of wellness – financial, physical, and emotional – and introduced education and awareness programmes, which has been great for us as a business. We didn't have to ask for any of this information – the Unmind support team were proactive."
