2.3.5 Staff hunger interventions
2022-2023
AASTMT prioritizes the well-being of its staff by implementing interventions to prevent or alleviate hunger and promote food security within the institution. These efforts are aligned with AASTMT’s commitment to fostering an inclusive and supportive work environment.
Provision of Nutritious and Affordable Meals:
- Discounted Meals: AASTMT has established partnerships with campus dining facilities and local restaurants to provide discounts ranging from 5% to 30% on meals for staff. This initiative reduces the financial burden on employees while ensuring access to affordable and nutritious food.
- Nutritional Diversity: Dining facilities on campus offer a range of meal options catering to diverse dietary needs, including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free choices. This ensures that all staff can access meals that align with their dietary preferences and health requirements.
- Shared Dining Experiences: Community dining events allow staff members to participate in meal preparation and share meals together. These gatherings not only address immediate food needs but also promote well-being and strengthen relationships among employees.
Fostering a Health-Conscious Environment
AASTMT ensures that its interventions are inclusive, addressing the nutritional and financial needs of its staff while promoting sustainability and responsible consumption practices. By prioritizing access to healthy and affordable meals, the academy creates a supportive environment where staff can thrive professionally and personally.
