Essentially what it means is over the past 12-18 months we have had an increasing focus on the wellbeing of our staff.

He continued: “We believe we’re more attuned and aware of some of the demands that people face in their lives from day to day and we’ve change how we act and behave as a company in order to be a better employer and a better place to work, and to make work life balance better for our employees.”
