We all need to play our part in creating #GoodWorkplaces

Healthy workplaces are good for everyone, and for business. Creating good veterinary workplaces allows veterinary professionals to fulfil their professional oaths and continue to safeguard animal health and welfare, and public health.

We鈥檙e calling on all members of the veterinary profession, across all sectors of veterinary work, to commit to our vision for a good veterinary workplace.

#GoodWorkplaces #TimeForChange

Why do good workplaces matter?

Stress, burnout, discrimination, and lack of career progression all contribute to the retention crisis in the veterinary profession.

Our workforce report, a study conducted with the University of Exeter, clearly showed that vets' day to day experiences have the greatest impact on their satisfaction with their work, and directly impacts on their desire to leave or to stay.

To tackle the 鈥榣eaky bucket鈥� of vets leaving the profession, we all need to play our part in creating a good workplace culture, where everyone feels valued and included.

To help achieve this, we鈥檝e set out our vision for how a good veterinary workplace should look, highlighting the core principles and key resources every workplace should have.
