We are thrilled to announce that we've been named one of the UK's top 100 companies for workplace culture in the prestigious Culture 100 Award!
This accolade comes following a robust application process, which included the opportunity for every staff member to contribute via an anonymous survey. Such recognition reflects our commitment to fostering a culture of collaboration, innovation, and work-life balance.
What is the Culture 100 Award?
The Culture 100 Award spotlights the forward-thinkers that redefine what it means to be a 'People First' organisation.
The Culture 100 Award - Growth Edition is a 12-month certification bestowed upon 100 UK companies that excel in creating exceptional work environments. Backed by industry titans, such as The Economist, Business Insider, Fortune, and Forbes, and rooted in extensive research alongside Nielsen, this award is a testament to our dedication to building a company culture that employees love.
All of us are incredibly proud that Ruddocks is being recognised as one of the UK's most loved and happiest B2B companies to work for. But this award offers more than just recognition. It provides a unique opportunity to connect with other like-minded organisations, share best practices, and learn from industry experts. We're excited to contribute to the growing movement of companies prioritising workplace culture.
This achievement is a direct result of our team's hard work and firm commitment to our company culture. And a positive work environment is not only beneficial for employees but also drives business success. By sharing our story, we hope to inspire other businesses to place culture at the heart of their operations.
Creating an Open Culture
We place our people at the heart of our family-owned business, and they are the main reason we've been going strong for 140 years. So, it goes without saying that we support them by offering fair wages, enhanced benefits, flexible work arrangements, and a nurturing and supportive environment. Our commitment to employee development and wellbeing is reflected through a variety of initiatives, including wellness programs, social events, volunteering opportunities, and open communication channels. The long-term impact of looking after our team is evidenced not only by this award, but also by our average length of service, which currently stands at over 12 years.
Continued Development
While we are delighted to receive this award, we understand that maintaining a truly progressive work environment is not a mere checkbox exercise. It's a long-term commitment, a promise to every individual that they matter and they're more than just their job title. So, we are excited to embark on this new chapter and continue building a workplace that our employees are proud to be a part of.
The culture we aspire to build is one of inclusion, respect, empowerment, and passion, where everyone feels valued, supported, and proud to be part of the team. And it is our honour to get recognised by the Culture 100 Award!
