About Crest Medical

The Leader of the organisation is committed to being the best in the business by creating an enjoyable and supportive environment for people to work, where success is rewarded and mistakes are tolerated. In this environment he encourages the people to be successful as individuals, as well as a team. He strives to improve staff focused initiates and encourages inclusiveness through the different working groups and briefing meetings put into place over the past year. His standards are high and as a natural motivator has created an environment that encourages all to aim to reach these standards. In the last year the Senior Management Team have implemented an HR strategy which has incorporated a number of people focused initiatives including creating a mission, vision and values; implementing a performance/profit related bonus for all employees; monthly staff briefings with an open forum for q and a's; implementing staff suggestions such as the working group and defining job roles with job descriptions.

Crest Medical take the approach to wellbeing whereby they try to identify and tackle the cause and not the symptoms of their people’s welfare. Wherever possible they try and accommodate and support any changes and adjustments to relieve any pressures that may occur either personally or professionally. They do this by ensuring they maintain an open dialogue with their employees through their communications infrastructure and people management.

Within the organisation a working party has been implemented following an employee suggestion, with the aim to review operational progress and identify any areas for improvement. It involves a group of voluntary representatives who provide a voice for the rest of their team to highlight key operational concerns and any ideas/suggestions to rectify them. The MD is also in attendance as the final decision maker on feasibility from a commercial point of view. The Management focus group meet on a weekly basis to evaluate business as a whole. This encourages sharing best practice, cohesion and support between departments. Feedback is communicated back to teams and actions implemented. The mission, vision and values workshop encouraged the involvement of respected employees and demonstrated the business commitment to listening to its employees and reinforced the inclusive culture and open door policy.
