Workplace Happiness Programmes
Amplify Employee Happiness & Drive Workplace Success
Happiness Co’s workplace programmes are designed to transform your organisation into a thriving environment where employee happiness drives productivity, strengthens employee wellbeing and boosts satisfaction for both your team and stakeholders.

Happy People Create Happier Environments
Creating a thriving, productive workplace begins with genuinely caring for your employees. Employers who prioritise the happiness and wellbeing of their team not only build a more successful business, but also foster an environment where everyone feels safe, valued and respected.
At Happiness Co, we believe in the power of a positive workplace culture, where active engagement, open communication and supportive leadership pave the way for a fulfilling and joyful working environment.
Fostering Company Culture
A strong company culture is the backbone of any thriving business. When your team feels supported and aligned with your company’s values, they become truly invested in its success, bringing their best selves to work each and every day.
At Happiness Co, we’re here to help you cultivate a culture that genuinely cares for the wellbeing of every employee. Not only does this attract high-quality talent, but it also inspires your current team to become passionate advocates for your brand.
After all, who wouldn’t want to be part of an organisation that prioritises the health and happiness of its people?

Happiness Equates to Increased Productivity
When investing in the deep-seated psychology of happiness, we recognise that life isn’t just about feeling good, it’s about finding purpose and meaning in one’s work.
Happy employees are more inspired, more engaged and more willing to push the boundaries of what’s possible, driving innovation, creativity and lasting impact.

Don’t Just Take Our Word For It
We recently engaged the services of Happiness Co to carry out a series of on-site workplace sessions for our staff. The participation levels right from the start from our staff, and the difference I can already see within them, is quite incredible. Julian and his team at Happiness Co are very professional and we could not be more satisfied with the partnership we have formed with them. I have no hesitation in recommending them to our clients.

These guys are amazing at what they bring. Had the opportunity of spending 90 minutes with them and 70 other work colleagues and just WOW. Total respect for what they are doing.

I just wanted to formally say a massive thank you for your presentation yesterday. Prison staff can be an extremely tough audience who don’t normally choose to express their emotions. However, I have had numerous staff approach me to articulate their appreciation to Happiness Co at the rawness and authenticity shown.

Hi Carla. Firstly – thank you so much for the workshops at the Yallingup Wellness Retreat! I got so much more than I anticipated out of them. Believe it or not, even started a journaling routine for myself at home – which I’m absolutely loving – so thank you.
Carla B
It was a really nice time and space to connect with other RTP women I didn’t know. The whole day was really lovely, the engagement sessions were well run and allowed for the team to share themselves authentically in a safe space. I really enjoyed the women’s circle…I appreciated the genuine and authentic shares from the women present. The treatments all felt amazing, it was such a relaxing experience, I walked out of there feeling recharged and energised. It was amazing, such an enjoyable experience.

The Men’s Retreat was a great day…have already recommended it to friends. I was nervous to start with as wasn’t sure what to expect from each type of activity, but then as session went on it was very relaxing and informative.

I recently attended the Men’s Retreat at the Mindbody Lounge, in collaboration with Happiness Co and WPN, which was a great way to finish up Men’s Health week. Julian, Brayden and the entire team were so welcoming. It was empowering to get around a group of like-minded men, and see the way we all showed up for ourselves, our health and well-being, and the people around us. A morning well spent with hot and cold therapy, mindfulness techniques, breathwork and a very powerful mens circle to finish off. I took so much value out of the Men’s Retreat, and I can’t recommend their next event enough.

From the moment we entered the doors, we felt welcome. It was a calm, restful, happy space. The treatments were relaxing and refreshing and I felt in a physically good space when we moved on to the workshop. The mood and setting was perfect for an unwind session where we could reflect and contemplate our inner thoughts. The Retreat experience nurtured my mind, body and soul.

As Founder of Broken Crayons Still Colour Foundation I wanted to personally touch base with you Carla. Thank you for your dedication to my guests I wanted to spoil for Carers Week. Working in the Family Domestic Violence sector can be incredibly draining & stressful so I also felt very spoiled by yourself and your incredible team. Happiness Co gave some of our most cherished carers an amazing afternoon held at MindBody Lounge and you all went above and beyond for our wellness retreat. I couldn’t recommend this enough.

At Happiness Co, we understand that creating a safe workplace isn’t just about meeting compliance standards, it’s about fostering an environment where everyone feels motivated, supported and healthy – both physically and mentally.
The impact of hazards can be profound, affecting not only the individual but also their colleagues, friends, and family. These hazards may include:
- Emotional imbalance leading to anger or depression
- Physical & mental health challenges
- Increased stress & anxiety
- Decreased motivation
Addressing these hazards means more than just tackling the symptoms. It involves:
- Supporting work-life balance to prevent burnout
- Strategically removing stressors that impact wellbeing
- Enhancing communication between all team members
- Reassessing work processes to ensure fairness & clarity
- Engaging professionals when necessary to help guide more significant changes
By integrating a behaviour-based safety approach and adopting comprehensive Hazard Management Plans, we can help you create a workplace where everyone feels truly supported and valued. Transform challenges into stepping stones for a healthier, happier workplace.
