Faculty & Staff Well-being

One of the underlying principles in SFU’s Strategic Vision describes a commitment to “build and sustain a work environment that is equitable, supportive, rewarding and enjoyable”. 

Below are some helpful resources you may want to explore or access to enhance your own health and well-being.  

• Explore mental health information and resources and well-being apps and recordings. 

• Make use of the various health benefits to maintain your well-being. Review your eligibility using the benefits summaries.

• Reach out to SFU’s Employee and Family Assistance Program for confidential and professional assistance to support you and/or your family resolve challenges related to health, work or personal life.

• Set up a safe workspace using ergonomic guides or by consulting the Ergonomics team. 

• View various learning and development opportunities to build your skills and support your career development.

• Practice your faith, meditate, or connect with a faith-based group or chaplain at the Multifaith Centre.

• Find a universal/all-gender washroom on campus if you prefer to use gender-inclusive washrooms.

• Consult with the Wellness and Recovery Office for resources related to employee health, as well as assistance and accommodations related to ongoing illness and disability. 

• Contact Safety and Risk Services to share concerns or incidents that you may have encountered or use their Safe Walk program to have a member of Campus Public Safety safely escort you from one part of campus to another. 

• Reach out to the Sexual Violence Support and Prevention Office (SVSPO) to access confidential information and support.
