CWWA 2025 Winner Interview - British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT)

What does it really take to build a healthy and inclusive workplace in post-secondary education? Louisa Jewell, Founder and President of the Canadian Positive Psychology Association (CPPA), sits down with Heather Thomas, Benefits and Wellness Advisor at the time of the interview, from the British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT), for an insightful conversation on workplace well-being in action. Recognized as a 2025 Canadian Workplace Well-Being Awards (CWWA) winner, BCIT shares how it is advancing a comprehensive approach to employee well-being — strengthening physical health, mental well-being, and psychological safety across all employee groups. Heather discusses the institute’s focus on mental health literacy training, wellness education, and inclusive initiatives grounded in respect, reconciliation, and equity. Heather has since retired, and we thank her for her leadership and contributions to advancing well-being at BCIT. Tune in as Louisa and Heather explore what’s working, what’s evolving, and how post-secondary institutions can meaningfully support well-being at work.
