Equifax recognised as excellent employer

Wexford operation awarded Investors in People standard

The Wexford operation of business and consumer credit information provider, Equifax, has recently achieved Investors in People accreditation. As one of only 10 Irish companies to hold the Investors in People standard and the only company in Ireland to hold it simultaneously with the Excellence Through People Gold standard, this is tremendous endorsement of the companyís vision to support and develop its employees.

The office in Wexford currently employs 150 staff. It was commended by the Investors in People assessor as an exceptional employer, offering its staff a good overall range of employee benefits. In particular, Equifax was praised on the leadership provided by its experienced management team. In addition, the relaxed and informal working environment was noted as a place where people can contribute fully to the success of the organisation with staff responding positively by demonstrating a commitment to providing high standards of professionalism and customer service.

Sandra Lawrence, General Manager of Equifax, comments, ìThe Investors in People standard is yet another testament to the care and commitment we show towards our staff, making Equifax one of the best employers in Ireland.

We are pleased to learn that our staff regard Equifax as an exceptional employer and that they feel valued and recognised for their contribution to our success. The company particularly impressed the assessor through its staff development opportunities, good examples of flexible working and family friendly approaches as well as our ongoing improvement of the way we perform. Once again, Equifax has been recognised as an organisation that places quality at every level of its business.î
