4C Associates named as 'One to Watch' in Best Companies Accreditation 2010
London, UK– 5 February 2010: 4C Associates, a CIPS prize-winning procurement company, has today been awarded the ‘One to Watch’ Status in Best Companies Accreditation 2010. The Best Companies Accreditation awards an elite rating system for organisations that demonstrate high levels of employee engagement.
Based on staff feedback, organisations receive a Best Companies score that determines its star rating. Employees answer 54 key questions within the survey where the results give a Best Companies Index (BCI) score. It has surveyed over a million employees in the past six years since it was established.
"To be awarded an accreditation as prestigious as this is something we are extremely proud of at 4C”, said 4C Managing Director, Ed Ainsworth. “This award is particularly rewarding for 4C as it shows employee satisfaction, which is important to us."
"We would like to congratulate 4C Associates on their outstanding achievement. An engaged workforce is essential as organisations move out of the recession and into a more stable economic situation", said Jonathan Austin, the founder and CEO of Best Companies. "However, organisations like 4C that have kept on engaging their staff and making sure they are involved in the business will be in a good position for the future and should be congratulated on their efforts."
