Our stance on mental health

Our ideal client

  • does not (willingly) harm the mental health of its users, employees or others; e.g. is not focused on getting people addicted (social media, games, gambling), is not letting underpaid staff filter through submissions.

In our work

  • we design to prevent people from getting addicted.
  • we protect users (not just children) from harmful content or abuse from others; e.g. implementing options to block and report other users.
  • we encourage clients to not measure and aim for (more) time spent with a product.
  • we leverage new technologies that help people maintain and improve their mental health.

At Hike One

  • we put our (mental) health over our work and foster a culture of openness and open communication about mental health.
  • we offer mental health support and counselling to our people.
  • we remind people to take breaks, go home on time, etc.
