"Because good people make a great business" Investors in People
In March 2019 Sort Group, the parent company of SortRefer, were incredibly proud to be awarded a prestigious Silver award by Investors in People, demonstrating our commitment to continuous improvement and innovation achieved by developing our people and maximising on technology.
Investors in People are the UK’s leading accreditation for business improvement through people management, and provide a wealth of resources for businesses to innovate, improve and grow, with a focus on good people making a great business. Working with clients across the globe, Investors in People enables organisations to benchmark against the best in the business on an international scale.
“This award is testament to the hard work, dedication and commitment to the business of the senior team and employees which was apparent at assessment” Tracy Duggan, IIP assessor.
The report focused on three key areas Leading, Supporting, Improving and gave in-depth analysis based on the standard of the Investors in People framework, reflecting the latest workplace trends, essential skills and effective structures.
Paul Devoy, Head of Investors in People, said: “We’d like to congratulate Sort Group, Investors in People accreditation is the sign of a great employer, and an organisation committed to achieving success by realising the potential of their people. Sort Group should be extremely proud of their achievement.”
We have worked hard to create a culture that values and invests in each and every member of staff. Proud to be celebrating our 10th birthday this year, and with hitting this significant milestone, we decided to take a fresh look at our company vision and mission as well as creating new company values that underpin who we are as a business and what we stand for.
Kev Tunnicliffe, CEO of SortRefer, said: “We are all delighted with the Silver accreditation, which is a significant step up from the standard award that we received three years ago.”
