Fleet Alliance wins fourth Great Place to Work award

Leasing and fleet management provider Fleet Alliance has again been voted one of the best places to work in the UK.

The award is the fourth in succession that the Glasgow-based company has received, making it one of the top 50 best places to work in the UK in the medium-sized category for companies with 50-499 employees.

The Fleet Alliance overall Trust Index score was 92% which represented the percentage of staff who said Fleet Alliance was a great place to work. The result is 40% higher than the UK average and 7% higher than the average for the top 100 Best Workplaces.

The Great Place to Work Institute is part of the world’s largest consultancy specialising in workplace assessment and enhancement.

Every year, the Institute surveys some 6,000 organisations around the world, representing around 10 million employees, to give an insight into what makes an organisation’s employees tick and how leaders can improve their business performance by understanding and improving their workplace culture.

In participating in this year’s Best Places to Work survey, Fleet Alliance staff took part in a confidential and anonymous survey process from the Great Place to Work Institute, covering 17 different workplace areas and categories.

They answered a series of questions about the standard and quality of their workplace covering areas such as recognition, reward, talent management, values and ethics, and trust in leadership.

Some 98% of Fleet Alliance staff said it was a friendly place to work, and the same percentage said it had ‘special and unique benefits’.

Martin Brown (pictured), managing director of Fleet Alliance, said: “We are delighted to have again been rated one of the Best Places to Work in the UK, based on the feedback from our staff and as measured by the Great Place to Work Institute.

“It is extremely gratifying to be named one of the UK’s Best Workplaces for the fourth year in a row, and to have staff both recognise and value our efforts to continuously improve their professional and personal wellbeing.”
