Impact of Investors in People
- Thanks to the additional training and new policies introduced with the help of Investors in People, managers now have the skills to effectively tackle staff absence issues.
- Team members are much clearer about their individual responsibilities and how they can raise issues with decision makers within the company.
- Staff turnover has also reduced, as evidence of this, the number of advertised vacancies fell from 25 in 2005 to 20 in 2006 and then further to just 12 in 2007. This has saved the organisation many thousands of pounds in recruitment and training costs.
