Neil Page, Sales Director at Garic, discusses why Garic are partnering with phs.
Garic is a leading sustainable solutions provider to the construction industry and major infrastructure projects across the UK.
“We are passionate about what we do and how we treat people. We value our colleagues, customers, and suppliers, and we believe that every aspect of their experience with us is important.
“At Garic we’ve been going on a similar journey to that of most of our customers - working hard to increase the diversity of our business. That said we still have a male dominant workforce, and the stats tell us Incontinence is likely to be affecting many members of our team.
“The wellbeing and care of our teams is of utmost importance to us. phs’ research has given us the confidence to provide these facilities to our own teams and to our customers, and as such, know that we will help reduce the anxiety created by this often taboo subject. At Garic, one of our company values is ‘do the right thing’ and this culminates in us working with and supporting lots of different charities and our communities that we work in.
“We were blown away by the careful and considered approach phs has taken to this initiative and we’re really excited to be working in partnership to support both our own colleagues and our customers.
“When you’re coming to work, you want to feel supported, looked after, and that your employer has your best interests at heart. So that’s why it’s important for us to provide dignity to those who need it, in a discreet way, behind the cubicle door in private.
“Where you work should feel like a safe place and whatever we can do as a business to reduce stress and anxiety to our colleagues and customers that makes their working day better, we’re all in.
“With Garic being a market leading sustainable welfare provider to many major infrastructure projects around the UK, it has been vital for us to agree a working partnership with phs to bring this great initiative to market in collaboration with our products.
“We’re really excited this initiative will be rolled out as a service to all our customers so they too can support their own colleagues.”
