In addition to enabling people to keep in touch with their family and friends around the globe, the company runs an annual "it's our community" programme where external individual groups can apply for up to £1,000 for local projects. It also raises money for local charities through events such as its exchange challenge, which involves employees and their family and friends travelling from the firm's headquarters in Douglas by any means other than motorised transport to one or more of its out-of-town exchanges. In the past people have walked, run, cycled, ridden horses and rowed a boat. Staff are proud to work for the company (81%), love their job (75%) and think that the firm makes a difference to the world (69%). Manx Telecom introduced the first mobile phone recycling initiative on the Isle of Man and channels the money raised back into environmental projects.

The company invests an average of £1,000 per head on training a year to ensure its 302 staff have the skills they need, and managers have a budget to acknowledge exceptional effort with gifts such as flowers, meals or bonus payments. There is also an annual awards evening to mark significant achievements. This includes the winner of the in-house Innov8 scheme, which can award up to £50,000 for successfully implemented ideas. manxtelecom.com
