Kia UK Limited, has been officially accredited as a Great Place to Work-Certified™ organisation.
The certification derives from validated employee feedback, which was gathered by the independent organisation, Great Place to Work. The accreditation confirms that at least 65% of employees have a consistently positive experience at Kia UK Limited. All Kia UK staff were free to complete the independent survey asking questions about their thoughts on the organisation.
Excellent response was given by Kia staff on areas such as working atmosphere, trust in management, corporate strategy, pride in working for the company, benefits, facilities and sense of security.
Great Place to Work® is a global authority on workplace culture, using its rigorous data-driven For All™ methodology.
Gemma Benbow, People and Organisation Director at Kia UK Limited said: “A company is only as good as its people, so it’s fantastic that Kia UK has now been independently certified as a Great Place to Work®. Employee satisfaction is hugely important to us as a customer-focused organisation, so it is great that they have reported positive experiences towards their colleagues, leaders and jobs.
“There is a direct correlation between employee and customer satisfaction. Being a Great Place to Work drives productivity, better business and results that all make a difference to our customers.”
Kia UK topped the Reputation automotive brand list in late 2022, measuring customer sentiment and online reputation. The company also won the ‘Gold Trusted Service’ award from Feefo for the past two years, which uses ratings from real customer reviews.
“We congratulate Kia UK Limited on achieving this certification,” said Benedict Gautrey, Managing Director of Great Place to Work® UK. “Organisations that put the employee experience at the heart of their business gain employees’ trust and, in turn, are truly able to build a great workplace culture that delivers outstanding business results.”
