The Network brings together the home workers currently employed by Highams, from those based in the Yorkshire Dales to those based in Brussels. These home workers are already having great success at developing and establishing relationships with business contacts, and Highams is keen to expand on the progress already made.

Mike Radlett, European Operations Director, says: ìThe Home Workers Network has been extremely successful so far and Highams is looking forward to expanding into the rest of Europe and around the world. The Network forms part of Highamsí philosophy to support flexible working and allow people to achieve a work-life balance that suits them.î

ìThe Home Workers Network will also bring enormous business benefit to Highams as it allows the company to reach international clients and customers.î

So far the Home Workers Network has been particularly popular with mothers who want to return to work after having children as it gives them the opportunity to create their own work schedules.

Highams not only offers the home workers flexibility but also provides the training, technology and advice needed: for instance running training courses such as ìReturning to Workî and helping with developing selling techniques.
