We’ve been awarded GOLD<br />
for investing in our people<br />
We’re proud to announce we’ve been awarded GOLD standard by<br />
Investors in People, which only 7% of accredited organisations achieve!<br />
What does this mean for you?<br />
Because we’re investing in the development of our staff, their knowledge and<br />
skills are always up to date. It means our staff have embraced One Manchester’s<br />
values of being ambitious, connected and trustworthy, so the work we’re doing<br />
for you is always the best it can be. The award also means we’re attracting<br />
talented people - whether it’s the One Money team with debt and benefit<br />
advice or the Repairs and Maintenance team.<br />
We want to hire the very best staff and invest in the people who work<br />
here. That creates a happy workforce and a high-quality service for you.<br />
Always thinking of the environment<br />
Together with Manchester City Council, we have been visiting<br />
residents of our high-rise blocks to explain how to make best<br />
use of the blue, brown and green waste bins.<br />
During the two days visiting our 17 tower blocks, customers got the<br />
chance to ask questions about waste and recycling. They received<br />
helpful tips, advice and additional items to help with recycling.<br />
If you would like to learn more, our website has some<br />
useful information about local waste collections and<br />
recycling at www.onemanchester.co.uk/refuse-recycle<br />
