| ADVANCE ACHIEVES DOUBLE RECOGNITION |
|
| Leading
nationwide security provider, Advance Security, has been shortlisted in two
categories in this year’s National Business Awards (NBA). Sponsored by Orange,
the NBA is promoted as the premier, cross-industry awards programme in the UK.
Open to FTSE 250’s through to thriving entrepreneurial businesses and
established SMEs, the Awards recognise ‘outstanding’ British businesses.
Selected to go
through to the final round in the ‘City and Guilds Employer of the Year’, and
‘Customer Focus’ categories, managing director of Advance Security, Richard
Bailey, is delighted with the news. “To be shortlisted in two categories is
excellent; particularly as we are competing with businesses out with our own
industry. Our dedication to our workforce and our customers is second-to-none
and it’s extremely rewarding to be recognised for our hard work and advancements
in these areas over the last twelve months. “
Measures
Advance Security has
introduced which
are central to the shortlisting include:
Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM) level 5 training (a course
currently only delivered by Advance within the security industry); A diversity
policy which encourages increased cultural awareness across the workforce and
ISO 14001
and OHSAS 18001 accreditation.
The
NBA finalists will present to the judges later this month, with the awards
ceremony taking place in July.
Advance will be submitting entries to a number of additional awards this year,
including the Security Excellence Awards (Environmental Initiative, Customer
Care, and Contract Security Manager) and the Chamber Business Awards (Green
Award and Excellence in Customer Service). Advance is no stranger to award
success having won the
2008 British
Security Industry Association’s (BSIA) Inspiration in HR Award.
