CYS: Building a Culture of Wellbeing and Openness

A Report by CYS Global Remit Human Resource Management Unit

In today’s fast-paced financial landscape — where precision, compliance, and performance intertwine — it’s easy to overlook one of the most vital aspects of success: wellbeing. The conversation around wellbeing has evolved beyond traditional notions of physical health. It now encompasses emotional balance, psychological safety, and the ability to feel supported at work and in life.

Encouraging open conversations about wellbeing is not simply a corporate initiative — it’s a cultural shift. It represents a workplace that values authenticity, empathy, and the courage to speak up. At CYS Global Remit, we believe that when our people feel seen, heard, and supported, they bring their best selves to everything they do — for our clients, partners, and each other.

The Power of Open Conversations About Wellbeing

Open conversations about wellbeing begin with a simple but powerful idea: it’s okay not to be okay — and it’s even better when we can talk about it.

For decades, professional environments prioritized resilience and results, often leaving little space for vulnerability. But the modern workplace has evolved. Research shows that when employees feel comfortable discussing their wellbeing, organizations experience higher engagement, stronger trust, and improved performance.

Creating that space requires intentional culture-building — one where conversations about stress, mental health, or work-life balance are met with understanding rather than judgment. These discussions don’t need to be formal; they can happen during team check-ins, one-on-one meetings, or even casual chats over coffee.

By normalizing these exchanges, companies move from simply managing people to genuinely supporting people.

At CYS, We Are Encouraging Open Conversations About Wellbeing

At CYS, we recognize that our greatest strength lies in our people. As a company that operates across borders and time zones, we understand the pressures and demands that come with the fast-moving financial services industry. That’s why wellbeing is not just a talking point — it’s part of our daily dialogue.

We encourage open conversations through:

• Inclusive and Supportive Culture: Leaders and managers are trained to listen actively and foster open communication within teams.

• A Safe Space for Dialogue: Whether it’s through HR support, employee engagement channels, or informal team discussions, CYS provides avenues for employees to share concerns without stigma.

• Connection Beyond Work: Team-building activities and cross-department collaborations help strengthen relationships and create an environment where people feel comfortable speaking openly.

CYS is a Strong Supporter of the Wellbeing Conversation

The commitment to wellbeing is woven into the fabric of CYS’s culture. From leadership engagement to grassroots initiatives, the company champions the belief that a healthy organization starts with healthy individuals.

We take pride in fostering an environment where everyone — regardless of role or seniority — can express how they feel, seek support when needed, and be assured that their wellbeing matters. This openness creates stronger teams, deeper collaboration, and a workplace where authenticity thrives.

Encouraging open conversations about wellbeing isn’t just about caring for people; it’s about enabling them to perform, grow, and innovate sustainably. When employees feel supported, they build stronger relationships with clients, partners, and one another — strengthening the very foundation of our business.

At CYS, we understand that wellbeing is not a destination but a continuous journey — one built on empathy, openness, and respect. Every conversation, no matter how small, contributes to a healthier, more connected workplace.
