We believe that people are our major asset.

In order to achieve these objectives, we aim to:

- Accommodate individual preferences for work assignments and schedules as far as possible.
- Support an open-door policy. Where employees feel they have difficulty in discussing concerns with their seniors, they have direct access to any Partner, Member of the Human Resources Committee or the Human Resources Manager, and ultimately the Managing Director.

Upon becoming a permanent member of staff, the Company will endeavour to pay an annual performance bonus to each permanent employee as a reward for individual / financial performance.

The Company is an employee-owned Company. In line with the Company policy, an offer of available shares is made each year and employees are encouraged to invest in their Company. Partners consider the views of shareholders on the admission of new employees as shareholders and dividends on shares form a significant part of the financial rewards offered to employees.
