We are dedicated to working on health and safety, as well as running a company which our employees enjoy working for.
Training and Development
Goal To ensure that continuous learning takes place for all employees during their career at Selecta.
Activity New starters receive a thorough induction into the company and continue to receive ongoing training throughout their career with us. This is reflected in the large number of employees who choose to spend a large proportion of their career with us and experience excellent progression.
Communication
Goal We believe that employee engagement is an important factor in employee productivity and job satisfaction. Our internal communication goal is therefore to support employee engagement through listening to what our employees have to say to us and providing them with the information and communications support they need to:
understand the Selecta’s goal and strategy
help us deliver our goal and strategy in their jobs, day-to-day
find satisfaction in their jobs
Activity We carry-out a bi-annual, Group-wide employee opinion survey. We take time to introduce new employees to Selecta. We communicate regularly with employees in team briefings and publications on the developments within the business and achievements of their colleagues. We support change with continuing communication, explaining what is happening, why we are making the change and what it means for those involved. We also provide communications for the teams introducing and selling new products and Point-of-Sale concepts.
Health and Safety
Goal To actively ensure the business activities undertaken by Selecta don’t affect the health and safety of Selecta employees, client employees and members of the public.
Activity We have a Group-wide Health and Safety Monitoring system which tracks all major incidents including the actions taken. All regions invest a substantial amount of time (i.e. management, information) and money to minimise the incidents which take place.
SAFEcontractor Accreditation
Goal To ensure that all installations are carried out to the highest safety standards.
Activity Selecta has had SAFEcontractor accreditation for two years, which involved completing a series of internal audits and questionnaires. Selecta also had to demonstrate that we carry out risk assessments and have first aid measure in place in the event of an accident in the workplace.
Awards Scheme
Goal To recognise and reward outstanding achievement.
Activity We run a number of schemes across Selecta designed to recognise those who embody our values and demonstrate outstanding achievement. These include Merchandiser of the Year, People of the Year and National Account Manager of the Year, all of which received their awards at our annual ceremony.
