We understand that our employees have busy lives and coming to work is part of that. That’s why we strive to ensure our employees feel happy and like valued members of our UKIM family.
In order to achieve this, by using some of the feedback gathered from our regular staff forums, we’ve successfully kicked off the new year with some new wellbeing initiatives. These new benefits include an extra holiday for guaranteed birthdays off work, free breakfasts and subsidised lunches, and new progression points for staff members in band 1.
“I always want what’s best for staff members and I really want to see them happy and thriving at work. By introducing new initiatives, I’m confident that it can really bring out the best in our employees as they’re supplied with healthy foods, have work life balance, feel rewarded, and have the options for progression. As our workforce is continuously growing, even more so this year, we want to ensure that everyone is excited for the bright future with UKIM.”
We want the best for our ever-growing and dedicated teams, so encouragement and progression are vital. With our newly introduced employee benefits, we hope to maintain an environment where staff wish to be and thrive, and we think we’ve already done just that. Let’s hear what some of our employees have to say…
“These additional perks really do help towards team morale. As a manager I feel the additional 3 progression points within Band 1 will help individual staff be recognised for their own level of skills/ knowledge and experience within their team.
“The additional points also provide individuals further opportunities for progression within their banding and increased goals to strive for. This also gives further opportunity for managers, such as myself, to recognise each team member for any progression they have made.”
“I have been enjoying the new staff benefits here at UKIM. The free breakfasts have been helping me start my day positively; it’s been keeping me focused through my mornings. Not only that but the subsidised lunches have been a great alternative for whenever I forget my lunch as it’s convenient and there’s a good variety of options.
"Having a good breakfast and lunch has made a massive difference on my productivity as it has kept me motivated throughout my whole day. There have been new bands introduced as well and I feel secure knowing there is plenty room for progression within the company.”
