Investors in people - Investing in our organisation

The Hansam Group of companies which includes Geosynthetics Ltd and Stormwater Management Ltd has been awarded the Investor in People Standard, in recognition of its commitment to setting a level of good practice for improving business performance through its people.

The Investors in People Standard provides a framework for improving business performance and competitiveness through good practice in human resource development.

An organisation that has achieved the Standard has been successful in adopting and maintaining its three fundamental principles:

Plan - developing strategies to improve the performance of the organisation, from business goals to leadership strategies;

Do - implementing those strategies, taking action to improve the performance of the organisation;

Review - evaluating and adjusting those strategies, measuring their impact on the performance of the organisation.

The Investors in People Standard is promoted and developed by Investors in People UK - a public body whose main stakeholder is the Department for Education and Skills.

" As a company we are very proud to have received the Investor in People award. Being awarded IIP confirms that we have and maintain high standards thoughout the business. However improvements can always be made as long as we plan, do and review."  Tracy Woods, Company Secretary
