Our Human Resources Benefits
MEET THE TEAM
-
As a member of the BPIF, we are part of a real community, united by a common vision of the print industry’s impact and relevance. The BPIF plays a pivotal role in advocating for our sector, ensuring the Government don’t lose sight of the importance of the print industry and the overall economic benefit to the UK. Aside from the industry benefit, as a business, we receive huge value from the BPIF’s array of services, particularly in HR, training and advice.

We derive a significant amount of added value through our continued membership of the BPIF. Whether that’s training for our apprentices, the savings we make on the climate change levy, the invaluable support we get from the human resources team or the networking opportunities afforded by local and national events. To me, the BPIF is more like an extension to our organisation that it is a separate entity.

To achieve the Seal of Excellence for HR, a minimum score of 80% must be scored within the health check and all mandatory/legislation areas must be passed.
