Thank you for your feedback. We completely agree that we have many talented people working at Ovarro, and it is our people that help make Ovarro a great place to work. It is great to hear that you like our Cycle to Work Scheme, and we were delighted to launch the Electric Car Scheme in October 2022.
Whilst we have said goodbye to a number of Ovarro employees over the last few years, we have also been pleased to welcome many new members to the Ovarro team. As we have continued to grow and evolve as a business, we have welcomed new sites into the Ovarro group, increased internal promotions and adapted a Smart Working approach, all of which has helped us welcome individuals across different teams, functions, levels, and locations.
o 85% of all new employees welcomed into the business over the last 12 months were non-managerial/leader roles
o 47% were technical roles and a further 21% were in our Operations teams
To support this growth and ensure we are adhering to our health and safety responsibilities, some of our colleagues have changed their base site to make room for others. This included some members of our leadership team who were previously based at our Sheffield site and who have relocated to our Chesterfield site. We also have members of our leadership at our other sites where we also have a high number of employees
Over the last couple of years, we have had to make several changes to our approach to communication to help us adjust to our working environment and our global workforce. As such, when responding to any questions that may be asked within one of our public forums, including our internal social media channel, we will aim to ensure the answer is relevant and appropriate to all employees who may be interested and/or impacted by the response. If you have a question that you do not believe has been answered, please feel free to raise this on our “You Asked, We Answered” channel on Yammer
We are sorry to note that you appear to have had a disappointing experience with our People team, and that you have not found the Wellbeing activities and support provided useful to your needs.
The People team aim to resolve all queries as soon as possible, however, we appreciate that this may not always be resolved satisfactorily or as quickly as individuals may like. We welcome your feedback, and please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss this further and help us understand your personal concerns
