Just group PLC | Annual Report and accounts 2022
COLLEAGUES AND CULTURE continued
As a result of this first survey, we were pleased that the results showed we have good levels of engagement, particularly excelling in the communication of our strategy to our people. Moving forward, key areas that we are focused on include improving our Reigate and Belfast office environments, and you can read more about our new London office environment on page 33. In particular we will continue to support colleagues with their wellbeing, especially with the challenging external environment, and ensuring that they have the right skills, development and support as we move through a programme of organisational transformation. “I know what our purpose and goals are as a team and how my work contributes to achieving our objectives.” Colleague comment from Peakon annual engagement survey. FEELING CONNECTED During 2022 we successfully embedded our hybrid working approach which is centred around the majority of colleagues spending a minimum of 40% of their time working from an office. Office working remains an important part of the way we work at Just and allows our colleagues to take advantage of the benefits of face to face collaboration, networking and socialising. We emphasise to colleagues the importance of working from the office with "purpose" and as a crucial way, we will maintain and further develop our culture and drive our growth agenda. We have therefore taken the opportunity to put in place a variety of in-person opportunities – from early career networking events to our Just Us Summer party. JUST LIKE NEW – THE JUST POP-UP As part of our focus on sustainability and building a greener business, in June we held our first "Just Like New" Pop-up shop at our Reigate office. Colleagues were invited to donate their good quality, second hand clothing which was then put on display for other colleagues to take home. In the process we raised valuable funds for Re-engage, our charity partner between 2018 and 2022, who are focused on tackling loneliness and social isolation of older people. The event was such a success that we held a Christmas Pop-up shop.
