M247 gains Most Loved Workplace certification

Manchester-based cloud and connectivity services firm M247 has received Most Loved Workplace certification as a result of its dedication to fostering an environment of happiness among its employees.

Set up by Best Practice Institute, the certification is based on research and insights through its Love of Workplace Index, which gauges employee satisfaction and sentiment. It looks at aspects such as mutual respect, seamless collaboration, unwavering support, and a profound sense of belonging experienced by employees within their organisation.

M247 received a 97% employee confidence score due to its commitment to nurturing a workplace ethos that resonates with positivity and appreciation, and to crafting a positive and thriving corporate culture within its workforce.

According to the firm, it is dedicated to placing employees squarely at the heart of its operational framework, has consistently championed initiatives and practices that contribute to cultivating an atmosphere of camaraderie and mutual respect, and fostered cross-level collaboration throughout the organisation.

Louis Carter, founder and chief executive officer of Best Practice Institute, said: “I started Most Loved Workplaces out of inspiration from my community of people who consciously place love for their employees at the centre of their business model.”

Rich Hughes, chief people officer at M247 said: “The ethos of loving employees is engrained in our core values at M247. I’m delighted to see that we have been recognised by Most Loved Workplaces with this prestigious certification.

“At M247, we value our people greatly, we see them as people who can power technology, and credit them largely in the formation of our strong culture; something that has become so instrumental to success in today’s competitive tech sector. We will continue to work hard at maintaining a workplace where every voice is heard and valued, and one that is loved by our team and employees to come.”
