EPIC Global Solutions has recently been honoured with the Investors in People Platinum, the highest accolade that can be achieved with the global benchmark for people management.
Platinum is the highest level of accreditation possible to achieve in the ‘We invest in people’ accreditation and is currently held by only 6% of IIP-accredited organisations. EPIC Global Solutions was commended for having robust policies and practices around supporting people that were embedded in every corner of the organisation.
EPIC’s director of operations, Danielle Smith, said: “Investors in People is really a hallmark for EPIC. It’s an accreditation that really shows that people are our main focus. They’re at the heart of everything we do, our lived experience and non-live experience staff are our focus, and that we invest as much as we can in our people so we can get the right culture at EPIC. Ultimately that it’s a fantastic place to work, which is exactly what it is.”
EPIC CEO and founder, Paul Buck, added: “What sets EPIC apart is the approach of using lived experience employees, who use their personal experiences of problem gambling to educate and prevent others from experiencing the same gambling related harm that they went through. It’s a people first business, and our people are at the heart of values and approach.
“The Investors in People Platinum accreditation is a well-deserved recognition of EPIC’s efforts and dedication towards creating an environment for people to thrive both professionally, but also to give others a second chance who might not have envisaged getting one.
“This accreditation is not handed out lightly and is only awarded to organisations that have excelled in their approach to people management and development. With this recognition, EPIC joins an elite group of organisations that have demonstrated exceptional commitment to investing in their people.”
