People 1st achieves two star rating in Best Companies to Work For 2010

5th February 2010, 8:56am

People 1st, the sector skills council for the hospitality, leisure, travel and tourism industry, has achieved a two star rating in the Best Companies to Work For 2010 accreditation.

Nearly 1,100 UK companies entered the Best Companies accreditation this year, representing more than 270,000 employees from the private and public sectors.  Only 18% of organisations received the top three star (exemplary) and two star (outstanding) rankings.

Best Companies awards an elite 'Michelin style' star rating system based on survey results compared to a fixed standard, and benchmarked against other participating organisations of a similar size.

Brian Wisdom, chief executive officer of People 1st, commented: "This is the first time we have entered the Best Companies accreditation.  It's a very comprehensive process and our result sets the seal on a successful 12 months for People 1st. 

"Despite challenging times within the hospitality, leisure, travel and tourism sector, we have remained focused on our strategy to transform skills within the industry and try very hard to ensure that, internally, we also strive for the highest standards and offer our staff the best opportunities and benefits that we can within a public funded framework."
