People

MITIE is dedicated to implementing a comprehensive and proactive people strategy with policies to ensure that all employees are treated equally, fairly, and in a responsible manner.

Our people priorities, within our CR strategy align with MITIE’s founding philosophy that was established over two decades ago to create opportunities and provide the right environment to enable our people to reach their full potential. We achieve this by providing appropriate training and learning development support for all levels of employees via structured development programmes.

Our talent management strategy is also influenced by external commercial drivers to ensure that we provide the world-class service our customers expect.

At MITIE, we make a significant investment in the training and career development of our people and offer a comprehensive range of courses linked with nationally recognised programmes. These range from NVQ literacy and numeracy qualifications via our Skills Pledge commitment, cultural awareness and diversity training to a wide range of technical and professional qualifications to make sure that our people are fully capable of meeting the challenges they face at work.

What is our objective?

To provide opportunities and the right environment to enable our people to develop to their full potential.

How are we going to achieve it?

1. We will continue our Skills Pledge commitment to offer access to Skills for Life and other learning and development opportunities within our Talent Management programme to all of our employees;
2. Deliver eight CR Awareness training seminars for employees by April 2010;
3. We will deliver a suite of bespoke diversity training courses to our people by April 2010 including; seven managing and valuing diversity courses, three diversity in bids courses, and at least two recruitment and selection programmes that have an emphasis on disability; and
4. During 2009 we will run a pilot employability programme in conjunction with Wellness to Working, London based on our successful Real Apprentice model for people with mild to moderate mental health issues.
