Every year businesses from all sectors, up and down the country, vie to become a Best Company to Work For, but only those who show a deep commitment to employee engagement, happiness and development, find themselves in one of the highly coveted league tables.
In November, Instarmac tuned in to Best Companies Live and were overwhelmed to discover they had been awarded with a 2 Star Accreditation and had placed number 6 in Manufacturing’s Top 25 Best Companies in the UK – a fantastic achievement.
This year, 2.5 million people were recorded as working within the manufacturing sector and in 2021, the turnover of employees was documented as 39.9%. Instarmac take employee engagement seriously, and with that in mind, they are delighted to report that Instarmac’s staff turnover for the reporting period was just 11% – significantly below the benchmark for the manufacturing sector.
“Ensuring our employees are highly engaged remains one of our most important tasks. Our people need to feel their contribution is valued, their views our sought, they feel proud to be part of Instarmac Group plc, and its future, and that we live our values ‘Work Hard, Have Fun, Make a Difference’ every day. Here at Instarmac employees have a voice and are listened to. We support employee wellbeing, reward hard work and performance, and nurture skills for the future,” says Mark Shorrock, Managing Director at Instarmac.
Excellence in the workplace is something to be celebrated and that is certainly the feeling at Instarmac Group plc after they were recognised in not one, not two, but three ‘Best Companies to Work For’ league tables.
On top of their unbelievable performance in the Manufacturing league table, Staffordshire-based Instarmac Group plc also placed 78 in The UK’s 100 Best Mid-Sized Companies and number 34 in The West Midlands’ 100 Best Companies.
There are many reasons why Instarmac employees are productive, engaged, happy and secure. In 2022 alone, Instarmac have added a Cost of Living bonus to help with rising household bills, Income Protection and additional health and wellbeing services to their already extensive list of employee benefits.
What’s more, Instarmac have introduced an extensive leadership training programme and have continued with their much-loved ‘foodie’ days, quizzes and prize draws.
