In a time when burnout, stress, and mental health challenges are increasingly common in the workplace, the importance of self-care has never been more urgent. But what happens when self-care becomes more than just a personal wellness goal—and instead, a professional and ethical responsibility?

That was the central question explored in our recent CPD-accredited webinar, The Ethics of Self-Care and Personal Responsibility, hosted by Charisma Healthcare in collaboration with legal and ethics expert Tanya Muller.

What the Webinar Covered

This thought-provoking session examined how self-care is evolving into a legal and ethical imperative in the modern workplace. Key themes included:

• The ethical duty of self-care—especially in high-stakes professions like healthcare, where poor well-being can impact judgement and patient safety.
• The shared responsibility between employers and employees to create and maintain a culture that supports mental, emotional, and physical health.
• Legal frameworks that now recognise psychological harm—such as burnout and chronic stress—as workplace hazards.
• The dangers of toxic productivity, and how ethical leadership can help shift workplace culture towards sustainability and psychological safety.

Attendees left with a deeper understanding of how self-care is not just about personal wellness, but about professional integrity, legal compliance, and organisational resilience.
