Grundon has been awarded the ‘We invest in wellbeing’ accreditation by Investors in People, underscoring the company’s commitment to employee wellbeing.
The accreditation comes after a detailed assessment throughout May and June this year, including an online survey (open to all colleagues), as well as focus groups conducted across several Grundon sites. Grundon’s existing wellbeing strategy, which emphasises employee welfare and continuous development, has also been central to its accreditation.
Results from the assessment highlighted that the company excelled by cultivating a positive workplace culture, characterised by mutual respect, role autonomy, and expert colleagues. The accreditation includes a three-year action plan, providing Grundon with a structured approach to further improve its wellbeing initiatives.
Bev Capewell, Grundon’s newly appointed Head of HR, said “Achieving the ‘We invest in wellbeing’ standard accreditation marks a significant milestone for Grundon. It underlines our dedication to promoting a healthy and positive workplace.
“However, we are not resting on our success. Our ambition is to reach the higher echelons of accreditation – gold or platinum – and we are fully committed to implementing the three-year action plan from Investors in People to achieve this goal. By working on this goal together as one team, I believe we can create an even more vibrant and supportive environment for all our employees.”
