Our Staff Approach

Our Trust is people-centred and so recognises that our Human Resources provision must be of a high-quality that befits the individuals who are very much our most important, valued and valuable resources.

Consequently, we are absolutely committed to ensuring that all of our employees in our constituent settings and central team and are happy, cared for, supported and equipped to thrive.

As part of this, we have clear policies and procedures that support our staff and which take on board the highest professional standards and the most up-to-date advice. These are supported by both academy teams, as well as our central Trust professionals, and all issues relating to pay, conditions and personal development are carefully taken care of.

Furthermore, we are committed to doing this in a robust and well-rounded way, taking into account the wide range of factors that impact and influence peoples’ well-being, both in the workplace and in their personal lives.

This is why we ensure that well-being initiatives align with four categories of wellness, thus creating and sustaining a well-rounded, ‘wrap-around’ approach to our well-being provision. These four categories wellness are:

  • Work Benefits
  • Health Benefits
  • Financial Benefits
  • Lifestyle Benefits

All well-being initiatives, whether provided centrally (for all employees) or in our constituent academies (for their particular staff) align with these categories and are used to guide and shape the Primitas approach to the promotion of staff well-being.
