GO Rentals create innovative chill zone for employees

Mental health is a critical concern affecting individuals across New Zealand, with a staggering 1 in 5 people impacted by mental illness annually and 3.9% of the population seeking mental health services each year*

Research showed that the three biggest workplace wellbeing challenges were: Employees' mental health (81.9%) Stress (75.5%), and Work/life balance (74.3%)**

Recognising the need to support its employees' mental health, GO Rentals has unveiled an innovative solution: a dedicated mini chill zone at its headquarters, providing a serene space where employees can take a breather as needed.

Recent accolades, including being rated as New Zealand's number one hire car company in the latest Canstar Blue Awards, highlight GO Rentals' dedication to excellence. However, the company understands that true success extends beyond customer service and quality vehicles.

"As a company, we firmly believe that the wellbeing of our employees is of paramount importance. We are not just a rental car company; we are a family that cares deeply about the physical and mental health of our team," emphasises Helen Osborne, Head of People and Talent at GO Rentals.

This mini chill zone is thoughtfully designed to foster relaxation and rejuvenation, represent GO Rentals' commitment to the holistic wellness of its employees. The company understands that mental health awareness is not confined to a single week but should be a constant focus. In line with this ethos, GO Rentals is poised to introduce yoga and meditation classes to further support employee wellbeing.

The creation of the chill zone and the companies forthcoming yoga and meditation classes are part of GO Rentals' dedication to mental health, wellbeing, and sustainable practices, extending beyond its role as a hire car company. As a caring and conscientious business, GO Rentals is determined to make a positive impact on society and the environment.
