A hundred per cent of employees surveyed reported feeling a sense of pride in what they accomplish, that they are treated fairly regardless of race or age, and that they work in a physically safe environment, all measures of vital importance in today’s work environment.
The businesses are committed to developing the social care workforce across the West Midlands and beyond, actively changing the industry for the better. Each year, Embark supports over 1,200 individuals through training programmes, helping them to start meaningful careers in care.
The firms engage with over 250 care providers, delivering over 250,000 hours of care activity in partnership as they introduce, embed, support and continually develop them all on their individual journey.
Additionally, students enrolling on Embark training programmes have a 99% completion rate, 80% job outcomes and 78% sustained employment success.
Commenting on this milestone, Alex O’Neill, operations director, said: "We’ve always believed that people are the heartbeat of everything we do, and this recognition is proof that when you invest in your team, treat them fairly, and create a space where ambition and compassion both thrive, the results speak for themselves. We’re incredibly proud to be officially certified as a Great Place to Work and even more excited about what the future holds for our brilliant teams."
With an increasing demand for high-quality care professionals, as well as growth within the businesses, both Embark Learning and Fairway Healthcare are actively seeking talented individuals to join their teams. Opportunities are currently open for care co-ordinators, recruitment consultants, trainee consultants, healthcare trainers, assessors, and administrative support staff, as well as health and social care staff.
