Investors in people

Orchard House Veterinary Centres are delighted to share the news that earlier this month Investors in People conducted an assessment of our surgeries and we have now received notification that we have successfully achieved the ‘We invest in people standard’.

Our investors in people assessment was a great opportunity for us to hear from our employees and we’ve learnt a lot from what we were told.

The assessment provided an opportunity for colleagues to share their feelings about how the organisation is dealing with the current COVID-19 crisis and how we have responded so far, with a number of employees commenting how everyone has pulled together and that the organisation was making good use of skills and knowledge in the business, with the open and honest response from the Group to its employees also being noted.

The full assessor’s report will now form part of our action plans and people strategies so that we can keep making changes, keep improving and keep moving forward!

The IIP accreditation is a great achievement and Orchard House Vets would like to thank all of its employees for their contribution, support and team work.

The Investors in People framework introduces continuous improvement and employee recognition. Seven million people are working in organisations accredited by Investors in People.
