Pure Human Resources are delighted to congratulate their longstanding client, Foresters Friendly Society, on being recognised as a ‘Best Company to Work For’.
Announcements were made today, revealing Foresters Friendly Society has achieved an outstanding ranking of 14th in Financial Sector list and 50th in the Regional – South East category in the listings published by Best Companies. At the national level category of Small Companies, Foresters Friendly Society achieved an impressive 43rd place in the rankings.
This outstanding achievement acknowledges the focus that Foresters Friendly Society have put on employee engagement, supported by Clare Lassiter, Senior HR Consultant at Pure Human Resources.
On today’s announcement, Clare said “I have supported Foresters Friendly Society with their Best Companies engagement survey for the past 2 years, a period of substantial change for them as an organisation even without a pandemic! Being able to work with a team of managers who are open to suggestion and genuinely want to learn from feedback is what has got them to where they are today: a small company doing as much as they can to be an employer of choice. Their culture of openness and collaboration means that they are valued by their team and there is a real sense of all employees at every level pulling in the same direction. For me, it has been satisfying to witness the progress made and also the benefits that have come with it.”
Rachel Hardy, Chief Executive, Foresters Friendly Society said, “Ensuring my colleagues are highly engaged is essential to delivering an efficient and caring service to our Members. We have made a number of changes in the last 2 years to improve employee engagement from further enhancing our generous employee benefit package to sourcing new office premises – perhaps most popular was giving everyone a day off work to celebrate their birthday. I am delighted that our efforts have been recognised by our Best Companies rankings and more importantly by our employees. I look forward to further developing our offering to maintain Foresters as an engaging and fulfilling place to work.”
