THE MOVEMENT

Our Six Flagship Programmes

From the moment a company signs the Wellbeing Pledge, it steps onto a clear Unified Action Plan built around six flagship programmes: cross‑company Wellbeing Working Groups that co‑design day‑to‑day solutions; the continent‑wide “Drive Safe, Park Safe, Work Safe, Live Well” awareness campaign; a peer‑recognition Wellbeing Ambassador network; the comforting “Home Away from Home” rest‑area concept; and the evidence‑based Ewellin Wellbeing Label that certifies results. Together these initiatives form a holistic, measurable pathway that any transport or logistics operator can follow to cut accident rates, boost retention and elevate quality of life for the people who keep Europe moving.

Wellbeing Pledge Manifesto

A commitment from transport industry stakeholders to prioritize driver wellbeing. Recognizing drivers as essential to society and the economy, we emphasize that a well-rested driver is crucial for safety and efficiency. This manifesto highlights the urgent need for improved mental and physical health support, advocating for a holistic approach that addresses the diverse needs of drivers. Through awareness, education, and investment, we aim to foster a healthier, more resilient workforce.

Wellbeing Campaign

A dedicated initiative aimed at promoting the holistic wellbeing of drivers in the transport industry. This campaign emphasizes the critical connection between safe driving practices, secure parking environments, and healthy work conditions. By advocating for safety on the road and in resting areas, we aim to enhance the overall quality of life for drivers.

Wellbeing Working Groups

The Wellbeing Working Group is a collaborative coalition of industry leaders dedicated to enhancing the health and wellbeing of drivers across the transport sector. Our mission is to identify and address the unique challenges drivers face, advocating for initiatives that promote mental, physical, and emotional wellness. By fostering a culture of care and support, we aim to improve driver satisfaction, safety, and retention, ultimately contributing to a more sustainable and efficient transport industry.

Wellbeing Ambassador  Programme

Introducing the T&L Wellbeing Ambassador. The Wellbeing Ambassador title recognizes companies that actively implement and promote effective wellbeing programs within their organizations. This designation highlights a commitment to fostering a culture of health, safety, and employee engagement.

Home Away from Home

Refers to creating an environment that replicates the comfort, warmth, and familiarity of one's own home, especially for individuals who are away from their primary residence for extended periods. This concept is particularly significant in industries such as transport and logistics, where drivers and employees often spend long hours on the road or at remote locations. By embracing the "Home Away from Home" concept, organizations can enhance the wellbeing and satisfaction of their employees, ultimately leading to improved productivity and morale.

Ewellin Wellbeing Label

Is an innovative initiative designed to recognize and certify organizations that prioritize and effectively implement wellbeing practices within the workplace. This label serves as a benchmark for excellence in employee health and wellness, promoting a culture of safety, support, and engagement. By embracing the Wellbeing Label, organizations can not only enhance their workplace culture but also contribute to the overall improvement of wellbeing standards in their sectors, leading to a healthier, happier workforce.

Driving  Wellbeing
Across  Europe’s  Roads

Ewellin – the European Wellbeing Initiative – is a pioneering movement dedicated to lifting the health, safety and happiness of everyone who keeps Europe moving. Born inside the transport and logistics sector, we recognise the long hours, isolation and physical demands drivers and depot staff face every day. Our mission is to turn those challenges into opportunities for better physical health, stronger mental resilience and a richer quality of life for the people behind the wheel – and the industry that depends on them. 

Working side‑by‑side with companies, unions, researchers and policymakers, we are building a practical, science‑backed framework that any organisation can adopt. From our Wellbeing Pledge to on‑the‑ground working groups and a Europe‑wide “Drive Safe, Park Safe, Work Safe, Live Well” campaign, every Ewellin action sparks engagement, boosts job satisfaction and supports sustainable growth for businesses and their people alike.
