Our Employees
The need to recruit and retain high calibre people is fundamental.
To this end, we have developed an extensive range of inter-related people policies, designed to set minimum standards of practice and behaviours throughout the Group.
A common set of values has been adopted and with over 63,000 employees internationally, local cultures are respected and local customs supported, ensuring all employees can play their part in helping to achieve our common goals.
We offer equal opportunities to all employees and applicants regardless of race, creed, sex, ethnic origin, age or disability. Where possible we encourage our people to reach their full potential and significant emphasis is placed on improving an individual’s skill set, harnessing the power of partnerships and developing a single team approach, recognising that it is the extent to which people can share best practice and expertise that holds the key to success.
Training programmes are carried out at all levels of the business and in the UK we were one of the first employers to sight up to the Government Skills Pledge.
Over 1000 employees in the UK have taken an NVQ in 2009 and we actively encourage continuous development and ‘on the job’ training.
