Dignity at work week

Date: 13 July 2009
 
Working Links, employment specialists, are holding a dedicated Dignity at Work Week. They hope this will really get people thinking about dignity and diversity at work and ultimately promote RESPECT across their business.

 

To celebrate Dignity at Work Week, they’ve asked their teams across the country to get involved and plan events throughout the week. London and the South East have risen to the challenge and put together a fantastic programme of events, from Wii Wimbledon in Croydon, to a Brighton beach picnic, to a men’s charity leg waxing event for blokes by the Hackney team!

 

Adam Bain, Regional Manager for the South East and leader on the Dignity at Work Week, said, “Understanding and recognising diversity enables us to make use of the differing views and contributions of our people to create a richer working environment. The benefits of recognising diversity in all our people include promoting greater productivity as a result of employee job satisfaction as well as building better relationships between people. By being socially responsible and adopting an all inclusive ethos, Working Links will be able to attract, develop and retain outstanding employees. “
