Using validated employee feedback gathered by Great Place to Work® – the global authority on workplace culture – the accreditation recognises that over 65 percent of employees within all three businesses enjoy a consistently positive working experience.
The accolade reflects the work the Group has done as part of its Sustainability Roadmap with one of its four pillars ‒ People ‒ providing a focus for its commitment to become an ‘employer of choice’.
Recognising that this is just an important step in a continual process, a cross functional team will be mapping out an ongoing programme to build on this result.
John Mills, CEO at Xaar, said: “We are proud to have received accreditation as a Great Place to Work, recognising that a significant number of our employees have reported enjoying a consistently positive experience in their jobs.
“Our focus now is to use the feedback provided by this objective external research as we support the personal development and wellbeing of our colleagues. Through the programme we develop we can continue to both retain and attract the very best people and become an ‘employer of choice’ across all our businesses.”
“We congratulate Xaar, Megnajet and FFEI on achieving their Certification™,” said Benedict Gautrey, Managing Director of Great Place to Work® UK. “Organisations which put the employee experience at the heart of their business gain their employees’ trust and, in turn, are truly able to build a great workplace culture that delivers outstanding business results.”
