Utilities broker Tritility's exemplary care of its employees during the pandemic has led to it being hailed an example to other businesses.
Tritility, which is based in the north east of England, helps small to medium-sized companies cut their energy costs – and their carbon footprint.
Employee care is part of its DNA and, with most of its staff preferring to be office-based, it extended and overhauled its premises to make them Covid safe. Sanitising stations, a one-way system and desk dividers were installed, a cleaner hired and regular ‘fogging' carried out to disinfect surfaces. Staff who preferred to work from home were also supported.
A wellbeing coordinator was appointed and is available on the phone at all times to support anyone who is stressed, worried or simply in need of a chat.
The company has appointed an extra mental health first aider and plans to train more as the business grows. Further support is available through AXA's Employee Assistance Programme and a recent spot check by the local authority led to Tritility's handling of employee wellbeing during the pandemic being described as an example to other businesses.
The company, which offers private medical insurance, dental and optical care, is passionate about nurturing talent and recently launched the LEAD programme for sales staff who want to become managers. Free college courses and apprenticeships are offered in conjunction with Sunderland College.
Tritility's commitment to celebrating difference and fostering social mobility earned it a TELCA Diversity Pioneers Award in December 2020.
My manager cares about me as an individual
All managers have regular meetings with directors and are trained to be alert to employee wellbeing. When an employee's performance requires improvement, their manager begins by looking at any underlying stress and wellbeing issues. This is followed by a stress risk assessment, where appropriate
I believe I can make a valuable contribution to the success of this organisation
The soon-to-be-opened Tritility Kickstart Academy will provide people who have been out of work for a long time with the skills and experience they need to join the company. They will receive extensive training and mentoring, followed by the opportunity to become fully-fledged members of the Tritility team.
This organisation has a strong social conscience
Support for nominated charity Washington Mind includes setting up a ‘Ray's Corner' in the office. Ray was a local man who took his own life and his ‘corner' provides information on mental health services and support. Tritility also supports Sunderland Foodbank and is working towards becoming carbon neutral.
