To better embody the spirit of “Quality Beyond the Palace, Happiness Beyond the Palace,” help employees adapt to an ever‑changing, fast‑paced work and life environment, promote mental well‑being, manage personal emotions, and foster positive interpersonal relationships, on the afternoon of November 2, the Group Trade Union invited the “Yuecheng Employees’ Lecture Series” to deliver a session on workplace mental health in the fifth‑floor conference room of the Group’s headquarters office building.

The lecture was chaired by Wang Zhongyou, Vice Chairman of the Group Trade Union, and delivered by Teacher Chen Jiliang, President of the Yuecheng District Psychological Counselors Association in Shaoxing City.

Teacher Chen Jiliang began his lecture by drawing on the section of the 20th National Congress report that addresses “Healthy China.” The content of the lecture can be broadly divided into three parts:

First, an overview of the definition of health, the relationship between mental and physical health, and a classification of psychological disorders.

Second, the definition of happiness, how to attain it, and the three essential elements for achieving it;

Third, the common psychological issues in the workplace, their primary manifestations, effective strategies for coping with psychological stress, and key principles for managing stress.

Finally, Teacher Chen shared with everyone the topic of “Being Kind to Yourself”—Gestalt therapy.

At the conclusion of the lecture, Wang Zhongyou, on behalf of all employees in attendance, expressed heartfelt gratitude to Professor Chen for his insightful presentation. He also encouraged everyone to apply workplace mental health knowledge in their daily work, alleviate unnecessary psychological stress, and move forward with a lighter, more resilient mindset. Guided by the work philosophy put forth by Group President Ren Qiliang—“Everyone is passionate, always at their best”—he urged all colleagues to unite, tackle challenges head-on, sprint through the fourth quarter, and fully achieve the year’s goals and objectives.

More than 50 people, including staff from the Zhejiang Company, the Garage Business Unit, and various departments within the Group, as well as members of the Group’s Party branches, the Group Trade Union, the Group Communist Youth League Committee, and the committees of its subordinate Youth League branches, attended the lecture.

The review meeting for the China Engineering Construction Standardization Association’s standard, “Technical Code for Seismic Walls of Multi‑cavity Steel‑Tube Concrete with Through‑Bolt Connections” (draft for submission), was held successfully.
