The Sunday Times, powered by WorkL, has revealed that Certus Card Group, one of the UK’s leading manufacturers and suppliers of gift, hotel, loyalty and membership cards, has been named as one of the best places to work in the UK.
This nationwide workplace survey honours and celebrates the UK’s top employers, which number over 500 organisations across industries and scale – and highlights the best workplaces for women, the LGBTQIA+ community, disabled employees, ethnic minorities, younger and older workers, as well as those that provide the best wellbeing support.
“It’s no secret everyone likes to win an award, but to win one based on direct feedback from our employees about how positive they feel in the workplace is a real honour,” says Paul Gerrard, Managing Director at Certus Card Group. “Especially after a year of change, merging the Incodia International and Precision Card Services brands, being recognised on this prestigious list is a genuine testament to how we’ve maintained a great culture.”
The Sunday Times partnered with employee-experience platform WorkL to deliver fresh insights into what makes a Best Place to Work. The awards use 26 questions from WorkL’s employee engagement survey, developed by behavioural scientists, data analysts, psychologists, business leaders, academics and other independent parties to most accurately monitor employee engagement, wellbeing and discretionary effort in the workplace. To achieve a high overall engagement score, an organisation must score well across WorkL’s six-step framework:
- Reward and Recognition
- Instilling Pride
- Information Sharing
- Empowerment
- Wellbeing
- Job Satisfaction
Zoe Thomas, editor of The Sunday Times Best Places to Work, said: “The Sunday Times Best Places to Work list is the UK’s biggest survey of employee engagement, compiled in partnership with workplace expert WorkL. Spanning a raft of sectors and located throughout the UK, the organisations in this year’s list range from innovative start-ups with a handful of employees to big multinational corporations staffed by thousands. These organisations know that happy employees are the superpower helping them thrive.”
