What is it like to work for The Leadership Trust

Wellbeing

80% of staff disagreed:

I am under too much pressure at work to perform well

Employees serious about losing weight are offered moral support. Time off is supported if an employee feels this is appropriate for managing stress, otherwise managers are encouraged to offer support on an ongoing basis. It is recognised that this is a real issue for some employees and time off/support from manager is provided. They provide a fully equipped fitness centre with new equipment that is available to staff to use any time outside working hours as long as the site is open, free of charge.
