Bauder has achieved the Investors in People (‘IIP’) Platinum standard, the most sought-after status in the national scheme, within the construction of buildings category.
The Platinum accreditation is the highest accolade that can be achieved and is currently held by only 1% of IIP accredited organisations. There are currently just 78 organisations accredited nationally, and only 23 of these are located in the south of England (figures at September 2018).
The accolade clearly demonstrates Bauder’s commitment to its strong culture and inherent staff wellbeing, personal development and embedded leadership practices.
Speaking about the award, Andrew Mackenzie, managing director at Bauder, said: “This is a remarkable achievement for everybody in our company, we are truly delighted. We never forget that our continued success is reliant on our brilliant staff, and I am so proud of the team here and everything they do. It is only right that the company strives to provide the best possible culture and working environment for all employees and the Investors in People accreditation is a great way of seeing how we are doing and where we should focus to make Bauder an even better place to work.”
Family-owned company Bauder, supply’s flat roof and green roof systems within the construction industry, with a workforce of over 160 employees located throughout the UK and Ireland.
