Seco employees embody the values of Family Spirit, Personal Commitment and Passion for Customers. Through these values, Seco employees have built a culture of mutual care, wellbeing and respect. This is just one reason Seco Tools UK employees choose to go to work every day.

There are many reasons Seco Tools UK was recognised in this year's UK Best Workplaces ranking along with 161 other UK organisations. Specifically, efforts related to corporate social responsibility, an exceptional work environment and excellent employee engagement set Seco Tools UK apart.

This is the first year that Seco Tools UK has been nominated for this award. We are delighted that Seco Tools UK has been recognised by its employees as an organisation that promotes a healthy workplace culture through trust, pride and camaraderie. According to the Great Place to Work Trust Index Survey conducted in October 2019, 89% of employees agree that Seco is a great place to work. One employee says Seco has “great family spirit,” adding “we have the freedom to decide what our best contribution is to the business.”

Understanding the perspective of employees is key to building a successful workplace environment. To determine an organisation’s ranking, Great Place to Work administers their Trust Index Survey to employees which represents 3/4 of the final score.

Zoe Wood, HR manager at Seco Tools UK, explained that employee engagement is “not just about a regular pay cheque, a secure job, having an annual performance review... those things are important, but they are just a starting point. In 2020, our work means more to us – it’s about feeling a passion for what you do, knowing that your work is developing you as a person, both professionally and personally. It’s about feeling coached and supported, it’s knowing your job is more than just a job – it’s a life choice.”

The remaining quarter of the score comes from the Culture Audit, a business-driven questionnaire that uncovers and evaluates the organisation's HR and leadership practices, policies and culture.
