The Investors in People \u2018Gold\u2019 standard highlights organisations that demonstrate a proven commitment to delivering a positive and nurturing work environment for their people.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To secure the accreditation, businesses undergo a rigorous assessment of their practices, policies, leadership and strategy, all conducted by IIP\u2019s independent assessors combined with feedback from employees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Access, which has achieved silver and gold in previous years, has secured this latest accreditation for three years, reinforcing its commitment to creating a supportive environment where its 174 strong team can grow and thrive.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The firm, which specialises in worldwide travel management and bookings for the entertainment industry, is dedicated to delivering exceptional expertise and puts both its clients and people at the heart of everything. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daniel Aston-Bell, HR Business Partner, at Access Bookings, said, \u201cOur people are our greatest asset, and we constantly strive to create a workplace that is nurturing and dynamic at every level. Our team is supported to achieve both career development and work-life balance, and this, alongside an inclusive, collaborative environment, is what makes Access such a great place to work.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

“Continuing to invest in our people is a key growth strategy for us, and scooping gold again means that every single person who took part in the process provided vital feedback on their experience of working at the company and how best to make work better.<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0Our IIP journey allows for continual feedback and recommendations so that we can make meaningful changes in the business. Knowing that we already have a fantastic platform and a highly engaged workforce gives strong foundations to build upon.\u201d\u00a0
