know The Best Companies b-Heard Survey… coming soon! Once again, we’ve signed up for the b-Heard survey which is run by Best Companies, who work with organisations like ours to measure, recognise and improve levels of workplace engagement. The survey is a fantastic opportunity for you to have your say about our organisation. You can really help us to understand what we are doing well, and where we might be able to improve. If we achieve the same overall Best Companies Index score as we did in the autumn, we’d be very close to getting into the top 10 best companies to work for in the UK – which would be an incredible achievement. Your responses are completely anonymous so please be completely open and honest with your feedback. You’ll receive your survey via email on 8th February and for every survey completed a £1 donation will also be made to City Hospice, Cardiff in memory of our colleague Mike Owen.
Wellbeing Friday’s
Zero Racism Wales
Annual Leave
As many of you know, Wellbeing Friday has resumed and will run weekly throughout this lockdown period. The initiative will be reviewed when restrictions ease. All staff will finish at Midday on Friday’s so please use this time to recuperate and recharge your batteries.
We have recently signed up to the Zero Racism Wales pledge as part of our ongoing commitment to ending racism. Keep your eyes peeled as we will be sharing further details about our Leaders in Diversity journey over the coming months and our ongoing commitment to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI). In the meantime, read more about Zero Racism Wales here.
Just a reminder for all staff to take their annual leave entitlement by 31st July 2021. We appreciate planning for the future is difficult in these uncertain times but booking your annual leave will allow ACT to focus on recovering from the impact of the pandemic post August, and more importantly ensures you are taking much needed time off for your wellbeing.
