Double-award for Unigloves

The 2024 UK’s Best Workplaces for Women™ List is made up of employers whose people have told Great Place To Work UK they work for an organisation that is inclusive and equitable for all. The 330 companies on the list are committed to ensuring a reasonable balance of women and men across the organisation; removing barriers to women’s career advancement; and creating workplaces where all employees, regardless of gender, can flourish.

As part of the award criteria in the small business category, 95% of employees at Unigloves (UK) say it is a great place to work, compared to 54% of employees at a typical UK based company.

The UK’s Best Workplace for Women accolade comes quick on the heels of Unigloves being named in the top 100 for UK Best Workplaces for Well-Being, a double recognition that Unigloves UK MD Chris Wahlers is delighted the business has been recognised for.

“We are really thrilled to have received both these best workplace awards and I am proud of what that says about our business. From the outset we wanted to create a business at Unigloves that puts its people first and which operates with integrity, honesty, care and most certainly equal opportunity. We are a family here at Unigloves, everyone cares about the business, and we are pulling collectively in the right direction so to achieve both these awards independently feels like a testament to our ethos. I want Unigloves to be seen as a good company doing things in the right way and thanks to that and the team we have – great things are happening,” said Chris.

Benedict Gautrey, managing director of Great Place to Work UK adds, “Workplaces are only great if they’re great for all employees. For seven years, the UK’s Best Workplaces for Women List has been paving the way by tackling discrimination, removing barriers to women’s advancement in their careers, and challenging taboos around subjects like the menopause, and endometriosis.

“Importantly, each of the companies on the list have been commended by their own female employees through their anonymous feedback that told us their workplace has gone above and beyond to ensure that women employees are treated fairly in terms of recognition, training, and promotion opportunities.”
