At Asendia UK, we survey our employees regularly to measure their work-happiness, identify opportunities for improvement within the business and celebrate success. We also ask a few fun questions too, with interesting results. Scroll down to see!
We take pride in being a business that really listens to its employees, and keeps them up-to-date on the business's current activities and longer term strategy.
We want employees to be happy, motivated, and skilled, so they are best positioned to do a great job for our customers.
We also know that it's not just the senior leadership team that are experts at what they do and have their finger on the pulse. Many employees have the ear of the customer, and have market and competitor insights that are valuable.
