Open Communication
We believe that communicating openly and regularly with our people is fundamental to running a successful business - this includes listening just as much as informing.
That commitment is even more important during a period of change.
Northern Foods is in major transition and we are clear that all our employees need to understand the reasons for these changes, the actions we are taking and the impact - positive or negative - it will have on their own lives.
Just as importantly, we want to involve employees and help them understand the role they can play in the changes we are making.
A range of site based and central communication channels are in place to ensure colleagues are updated and can provide valuable feedback. These include cascades, internal newsletters, the intranet and critically, face to face meetings.
Our induction pack for shop floor employees, is translated into Polish, Portuguese and Urdu, which, after English, are the most common languages spoken across the business. This pack means that essential messages on food safety and health and safety are delivered.
