We are thrilled to announce that we have been selected as a finalist in the 'People First' category at the 1066 Business Awards.
This award recognises companies that prioritise creating a positive work environment, fostering professional development, and placing the well-being of their employees at the forefront.
At Bournes, we have always valued putting People first and have made it a central part of our business strategy. Our core belief, 'Because People Matter', encompasses our dedication to our employees, customers, and the communities we serve, both now and in the future. We have seen the tangible impact of our commitment to People, with an average employee tenure of 9 years and some staff members exceeding 30 years of loyal service.
We are sincerely thankful to the judges for acknowledging our dedication to prioritizing People in our strategy and for our efforts in creating a supportive work culture that emphasises well-being and professional growth. We take immense pride in the work we do and extend our best wishes to all the other finalists!
The winners of the 'People First' category will be revealed at the 1066 Business Awards ceremony at the Bannatyne Hotel in Hastings on June 6th, 2024.
