About Brother UK Ltd
What is it like to work for Brother UK Ltd
Wellbeing
They hold annual Health
& Wellbeing events, where colleagues can access a variety of services and
information relating to their personnel health and wellbeing. These are very
popular in the company, and are well attended and supported events. Amongst the
things that are accessible to staff are head & neck Massages, advice on
quitting smoking, advice on weight loss, taster sessions of sports and
activities, advice and samples of healthy food, sight and hearing tests, help
and advice on personal safety, help and advice on motoring/driver safety, blood
pressure checks, access to help and advice on men’s and women’s health issues and
many more depending on colleague requests, and relevant topics. As a result of
their various activities on Wellbeing they were awarded a special recognition
from Investors in People.
Giving Something Back
They work closely with other
organisations to make their community engagement more meaningful, and
frequently get involved in their activities and fundraising, from a financial
and practical point of view. Where they have most success though is where they provide
time and resources to help community organisations, who would otherwise not have
access to such facilities. The MD donates a lot of his own time in a unique
way, he is regularly approached to make speeches and presentations for business
events. Their Infrastructure & Shared Services Director is Chair of the
Pride of Tameside Business Awards and a member of the local Authorities
Prosperous Board which is about sharing the resources and knowledge of a large
employer in the local region with smaller businesses, to generate growth and
investment in the local community.
My Company
Mission, Vision and Values are produced at Global level at our company
headquarters, which are then cascaded down to local level, with a version
produced in the UK specifically for Brother UK staff to relate to. The global
group produce a lot of collateral to communicate these too colleagues all over
the world, with visuals, videos and training sessions and workshops. Locally
they reinforce them by referring to them in monthly team talks, annual and
quarterly colleague meetings and half year reviews. They have a colleague
reward scheme (PRIDE) which allows managers and peers to nominate each other,
and these nominations link back to the core principles to provide a library of
examples of how these principles are being deployed.
