Being a cabin crew member for an international airline has always been a stressful job, but in recent years that tension has been mounting as flight crews must deal with both the threat of disease and increasingly unruly passengers. Virgin Atlantic is working to ensure their employees’ mental wellness by training more than 400 volunteer team members in a two-day mental-wellness first aid course. The volunteers learn to spot early warning signs of mental distress and direct their co-workers to relevant support. The program was started by Virgin Atlantic Senior Manager Crew Experience Steve Sneddon, who was brave enough to be open about his own experience with panic attacks and anxiety. Now Sneddon and his team of volunteers are helping their colleagues keep their spirits lifted so their lives and careers can soar. Note: Case studies are based on outside reporting and were not part of the Brands in Motion survey. Image Credit: Virgin Atlantic Case Study: 10
