In 2024, O’Brien Fine Foods continued to prioritise employee wellbeing, maintaining six active initiatives, exceeding its milestone target by 20%. This consistent focus reflects the company’s belief that a healthy, supported workforce is essential to long-term success and sustainability.
The company’s wellbeing programme includes a diverse range of initiatives designed to support both physical and mental health. These include the Employee Assistance Programme, which offers confidential support services; the Bike to Work Programme, encouraging active commuting; and participation in national awareness events such as International Women’s Day, Pride Week, and Darkness into Light. These initiatives foster inclusivity, awareness, and a sense of shared purpose among employees.
In addition to these core programmes, O’Brien Fine Foods introduced a unique initiative in 2024 - “The Corner Shop.” This in-house store offers employees access to high-quality products at discounted prices, helping to ease the cost of living while promoting healthy food choices. Importantly, all proceeds from the shop are reinvested into the company’s Active Community Fund, which supports grassroots projects in the communities where employees live and work.
