CR in the Workplace

NHBC is committed to providing a safe, stimulating and pleasant working environment and developing all of our staff to achieve their maximum potential.

As well as providing comprehensive HR and staff development practices and procedures, we have revised our staff appraisal system and training and development procedures to ensure our employees develop the skills, competencies and qualities needed to succeed and progress their careers now and in the future.

Obtaining regular feedback and opinions from staff is important to us and we run a staff survey at least once a year. We also have a range of established communication channels to encourage knowledge sharing and feedback, including regular business news bulletins, staff magazines, team meetings and conferences for directorates across the business.

Underlining our commitment to provide a supportive environment for our staff, NHBC continues to maintain its IIP (Investors in People) status and in the 2010 Sunday Times Best Companies staff survey, NHBC were rated as 'One to Watch.'

Supporting the integration of CR in the workplace there are a range of policies that ensure consistency and awareness of process in the organisation.
