Bennett Hay has been awarded We invest in People, Gold accreditation

Bennett Hay has been awarded We invest in People, Gold accreditation in recognition of its people practices. Following a rigorous assessment, Bennett Hay joins just 23% of accredited organisations who have achieved Gold status.

This standard is only given to organisations who can demonstrate excellence in developing and supporting their people. Gold accreditation means Bennett Hay has the required policies in place, but more than that, it means everyone within the company takes ownership for making them come to life.

Progression and opportunity is championed at Bennett Hay with colleagues given the opportunity to change their roles and progress to senior positions with the necessary support. High performance is also recognised on a regular basis by the owners and senior leaders.

Bennett Hay secured a benchmark score of 743 vs the industry average of 719, which is a particularly impressive feat given the challenging 3 years the hospitality industry has endured. The company has also featured 5 times in the Top 3 Best Places to Work in Hospitality.

Investors in People assessor commented: “The last two years has been very difficult for everyone, and the times have been tough. Some organisations fell by the wayside and others flourished. Bennett Hay’s investment in people, I am sure, helped the company to weather the storm and come out stronger.”

Paul Devoy, CEO of Investors in People, said: “We’d like to congratulate Bennett Hay. Gold accreditation on We invest in people is a fantastic effort for any organisation, and places Bennett Hay in fine company with a host of organisations that understand the value of people.”
