TUSKER stars with an outstanding rating in a company-wide internal survey from Best Companies, publishers of the Sunday Times Top Places to Work, during November 2016.

The survey looked at the company’s business practices covering recruitment, training and development, employee engagement, environmental and working polices as well as pay and benefits and employee satisfaction levels.

Tusker was awarded a two-star rating in the Sunday Times list and listed in the top 150 places to work.

Commenting on the success the organisation has had, CEO David Hosking said: “We know Tusker is a great place to work, but to have it confirmed by such a prestigious organisation on the basis of not only the information we have provided, but also by our employees following their surveys, really confirms it. We’re thrilled with the result.”

During November, employees at Tusker were sent an online questionnaire which covered every aspect of their working lives at Tusker, from how motivated they found their line manager and how good communications are, to how valuable they feel to the organisation and whether they believe they get a fair deal in terms of pay and benefits.

Against an average response rate of 50%, with 98% of Tusker’s staff responding this ensured that the results were representative of the organisation.

Hosking continued: “The employee engagement survey was primarily to benchmark the organisation against others of a similar size and structure, and to highlight what we’re doing well and where we can improve. We’re delighted with the result.”

“Being placed in the top 150 organisations in the UK as part of the Sunday Times Top Places to Work is an amazing achievement for us as an organisation and is testament to the ethos of our organisation. We’re all focussed on the future and we’ll certainly be striving for top-100 next time!”
