NCC Group values each and every client and is proud of the long standing nature of its client relationships.
NCC Group takes its corporate social responsibilities very seriously and recognises the important contributions to the business made by the
wider community of stakeholders, in particular employees, clients,
suppliers and the local communities in which we operate.
The Board takes
into account social, environmental and ethical issues in its
discussions and decision making and makes the health and safety of
employees a priority.
Stakeholders
Employees
People are at the heart of the Group's business and the support and
involvement of the talented individuals who form our team is vital to
the continued success of the Group overall. The Group has a policy of
keeping employees informed of, and engaged in, its business strategy
through the Intranet, regular employee briefings and divisional
meetings.
We are extremely proud to have been named on of the Top IT Employers
in the UK for 2008 in an independent study for Computing magazine and
carried out by CRF, an independent research company. NCC Group scored
high marks for career development, training and innovation in
particular, demonstrating our commitment to developing staff and
offering defined career paths is delivering results.
Comments and suggestions from employees on the Group's performance
and management are actively encouraged and a free flow of information
between the directors, managers and employees ensures that everyone has
an opportunity to contribute.
Clients
The Group values each and every client and is proud of the long
standing nature of its client relationships. Continuing client
satisfaction is central to our ongoing success and is regularly measured
and monitored through the ISO 9001 certified quality programme. Rare
instances of negative feedback are treated with the utmost seriousness
and dealt with swiftly by management through to resolution.
The Community
We are committed to ensuring that as well as delivering consistently
strong results as a business, we give something back to the local
community. We continue to support charitable organisations and actively
encourage the involvement of our employees in fundraising by covering
expenses and awarding additional days' holiday.
During the year, we supported fundraising for Christie's, the charity
which raises funds for the Manchester-based Christie Hospital, one of
the largest cancer treatment centres in Europe. Through a series of
events and sponsored activities ranging from mountain-climbing to
cycling and five-a-side football, we raised in excess of £23,000.
After two very successful years supporting Christie's, where we
raised in excess of £37,000 in total, we have now committed to support
the NSPCC charity, with particular focus on the Childline operations. We
have set a goal to facilitate the raising of at least £100,000 over the
next three years.
Suppliers
The Group's policy is to pay suppliers in accordance with terms and
conditions agreed when orders are placed. Although the Group does not
follow any code or standard on payment policy, where terms have not been
specifically agreed, invoices dated in one calendar month are paid
close to the end of the following month.
At 31 May 2008, the Group had an average of 45 days purchases
outstanding in trade creditors (2007: 28 days).
The environment
Although the impact of the Group's operations on the environment is
limited compared with other industries, we recognise our responsibility
to respect and limit damage to the environment. In 2006, an
environmental policy was introduced outlining the responsibilities of
the Group and each employee to act in an environmentally responsible
manner, in particular through efficient route planning, recycling and
sustainable procurement.
Key Policies
Ethics policy
The Group recognises and understands that our relationships with
those who we deal with are the key to our success and, as such, we take
our obligations and commitments to those people and organisations very
seriously. Our independence, reputation as a supplier of quality
services and the trust of our clients are all key assets that we aim to
protect at all times. We aim to engender in our employees principles of
honesty and integrity and the desire to work to the best of their
ability.
All of these values and principles are founded on an ethics policy
which permeates everything that we do.
Equal opportunities and employment policy
The Group is committed to offering equal opportunities to all; no
employee or potential employee receives more or less favourable
treatment due to their gender, age, race, national or ethnic origin,
disability, sexual orientation, or marital status. The Group is
committed to the training and development of all employees and to
providing a productive working environment.
Should an existing employee's circumstances change, it is the Group's
policy, wherever practicable, to provide continuing employment under
normal terms and conditions and to provide training and career
development and promotion wherever possible.
Health and safety policy
The Group is committed to the good health and wellbeing of its
employees and strives to provide and maintain a safe and pleasant
environment for all employees, clients and visitors to its premises and
comply with the relevant health and safety legislation.
Continued investment is planned in the coming financial year to enhance
the working environments of employees in all of our offices.
