Business Resilience award 2023

In 2022 recruitment and retention became a challenge for Proper Cornish. Following Brexit and then the height of the pandemic, the recruitment pool appeared to significantly shrink.

Proper Cornish took a proactive approach to the nationwide recruitment and retention crisis, by reviewing local business activities, enhancing recruitment programs, listening to colleagues, and improving benefits and the work environment for all.

As a company they have learnt that listening is key, and the analysis of data is essential to ensure the correct strategic direction is taken when facing an unexpected issue.

The result of the actions was a measurable improvement in colleague retention, a more stable workforce, and a reduced need for recruitment.

The Business resilience award was sponsored by KPMG
