About Investors in People
Most of us will spend around 80,000 hours at work in our lifetimes. For something that takes up that much of our time, we think people deserve to get more out of it than just a regular pay cheque. That’s why we’ve already helped more than 11 million people across 75 countries to make work better. And you know what, we’re just getting started… How are we doing that? We’re a community interest company, which means we put our purpose before our profits. That means everything we do and every direction we take is done to make work better. Organisations that meet the We invest in our people framework are proud to display their accreditation to the world. Because they understand that it’s people that make work better.
