We've once again maintained our Investors in People platinum status after our re-assessment this year.
The platinum award is the highest accreditation given by Investors in People and recognises our commitment to leading, supporting and managing our 450+ workforce.
Nicola Hope, Group Director of People & Change at Futures said: “We’re thrilled that we’ve managed to retain the coveted platinum status. Any accreditation from Investors in People is hard to achieve, so to keep the highest level is something we’re all incredibly proud of.”
We first achieved platinum in 2021, and while over 50,000 organisations have been assessed by Investors in People, only 1% succeed with platinum.
Nicky said: “This shows just how committed we are to high values of leadership and people management over a long period of time, and that we’re caring and supportive of our colleagues to be the best they can be.”
The assessment took place over a few months and included an in-depth review of Futures and our staff, including one-on-one and group interviews with colleagues across various departments, observations in meetings and staff surveys.
Karen Allen, Head of People & Development said: “It’s absolutely brilliant to know we’re still platinum. We strive to have an inclusive, engaging and empowering culture and this award recognises that’s what we’re doing as well as the amazing contributions our team members make."
