Every year, companies all over Europe implement engagement policies in the hope of gaining the recognition of being a Great Place to Work®.

Great Place to Work®, in partnership with the Guardian and Sunday Telegraph, is recognised worldwide and celebrates trust and engagement within an organisation.

These responses are then analysed to determine whether or not a company really is a great place to work.

On winning this prestigious award, Instarmac's Managing Director, John Holcroft, commented: "Lots of employers talk about the value of engaging their team but our third Great Place to Work® award proves that it is true of Instarmac and how we promote a rewarding and engaging environment for all employees."
