Platinum is the highest level of accreditation possible to achieve within the ‘We invest in people’ framework and Brother UK is the only organisation to successfully renew this for the fourth time.
Platinum accreditation means policies and practices around supporting people are embedded in every corner of Brother UK. And in a platinum company, everyone – from the MD to an apprentice – knows they have a part to play in the company doing well and is always looking for ways to improve.
Managing Director Phil Jones said: “We’re bowled over to achieve this accolade for the fourth time in recognition of the continued work we put into making Brother UK a top employer in the region and within the IT channel.”
He continued: “I’d like to give praise and thanks to everyone leading in the business plus our organisational development team for their continued efforts in keeping our policies and practices bang up to date across all aspects of our culture, employee value proposition and wellbeing initiatives.
“Our position as a leading technology solutions provider is intrinsically linked to these aspects, and the innovative approaches we take to both products and people. We know that it’s working because our employees stay with us on average for an industry-leading 13 years, which means there’s a huge amount of knowledge, expertise and loyalty within our workforce bringing us huge resiliency and capability over the long-term.”
Paul Devoy, CEO of Investors in People, added: “We’d like to congratulate Brother UK on platinum accreditation, this is a remarkable effort for any organisation.”
