Social Value

Fighting climate change

Fighting climate change

Lenus Health is committed to achieving Net Zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2045, in line with Scottish Government policy, contributing to UK Government policy of Net Zero emissions by 2050.
Covid-19 recovery

Covid-19 recovery

Lenus Health operated during the pandemic, including through provision of essential services to the NHS (software for the NHS Scotland National Notifications and Contact Tracing Service, and a long COVID study), as well as for other key public sector organisations.

Lenus Health recognises the impact the pandemic has had on individuals and communities and is therefore committed to creating employment opportunities to assist those looking to retrain. Aligned with our focus on wellbeing, Lenus Health is supportive in enabling workers to work from wherever they would like to work; from home, from the office, or from elsewhere, subject to project constraints that may be in place e.g., security considerations etc. and their levels of comfort in being in and around other people, should they be shielding, either for themselves, or because they live with or care for family members who are vulnerable. Measures have been implemented to support our approach to the new future of work. In the office environment, work has been done to support effective social distancing. While the office is used less frequently than pre-pandemic, there is more considered use of the facility, either for individual or team based working. We now recruit from further afield and because we have embraced full remote and hybrid working, this has assisted us in recruiting the best possible talent while also positively improving work life balance. Many projects undertaken are also aligned in helping organisations and their service users to manage and recover from the impact of COVID-19. Undertaking projects that make a difference to people and wider society has a positive impact on health and wellbeing of workers.
Tackling economic inequality

Tackling economic inequality

All workers benefit from contracts with competitive remuneration, together with a package of benefits which are designed to both attract and retain talent.

For example, the annual salary review policy means that all workers can expect their salary to be increased automatically, in line with increases in cost of living, without having to request it. In addition, the company operates a Profit Related Reward (PRR) scheme. Whenever the company is in profit, a proportion of the profits are shared among all workers in the form of a bonus.

The annual budgeting process ensures provision for investment in workforce development. Costs are covered for continuous professional development activities, access to online learning resources and attendance at events. Opportunities for development to address skills gaps and achieve recognised qualifications are discussed regularly, including during monthly one-to-one check-in meetings between workers and line managers.

The intranet carries detailed role descriptions for all jobs currently filled, new jobs being created and therefore requiring to be filled in the future. This open sharing of job descriptions assists workers in identifying pathways for career progression, both within their existing team and across other teams in the business too.
Equal opportunity

Equal opportunity

Lenus Health is committed to providing a workplace where diversity, equality and inclusion are actively promoted and supported through training to tackle any real or perceived workforce inequality. We aim to contribute to the creation and maintenance of a working environment in which all individuals can make best use of their skills, free from discrimination (direct and indirect), victimisation, harassment and bullying, and in which all decisions are based on merit.

Lenus Health’s HR practices include:

1. Conducting recruitment based on merit, against objective criteria that avoids discrimination. Shortlisting is always undertaken by more than one person and with the involvement of Human Resources.
2. Advertising to a diverse section of the labour market. Advertisements will seek to avoid stereotyping or using wording that may discourage particular groups from expressing interest or applying. 3. Not asking job applicants about health or disability before a job offer is made.
4. Providing equal access to training, with needs identified through appraisals. Employees are given appropriate access to training to enable them to progress within Lenus Health and all promotion decisions are made based on merit.

The Lenus Health HR Team maintains an overview of workforce profile which provides and overview of how diverse, equitable and inclusive our workforce is. This information is used by the Senior Management Team and the Board, to determine what actions, including individual and company-wide training, should be taken to tackle any real or perceived inequalities.
Wellbeing

Wellbeing

Lenus Health places strong importance on health and wellbeing, job fulfilment and the balance between work and family life. Lenus Health is supportive in enabling workers to work from wherever they would like to work; from home, from the office, or from elsewhere, subject to project constraints that may be in place e.g., security considerations etc. In addition, reminders are provided to workers about the importance of using all annual leave allowance. Content is regularly shared on mental health and wellbeing through internal communication channels and this is heightened during Mental Health Awareness Week when a number of activities take place every day.
Lenus Health pays competitive salaries for all staff and the company is committed to fair and equal pay. Salaries are regularly benchmarked against industry standards and are often higher. Staff are eligible for annual performance related bonuses and automatic increases in line with cost of living. In addition, staff receive a wider benefits package including pension contributions and private health cover. Lenus Health wants its workers to do their best work, feel proud about their work and know that they have the support to enable them to feel professionally fulfilled. As such, fulfilment is a component of job design which contributes to health and wellbeing, a dimension when interviewing candidates and a point-of-discussion between workers and line managers during monthly one-to-one check-in meetings and annual progress reviews. Exit interviews for employees who leave also provide an opportunity for us to identify what we’re doing well and where further improvements can be made to ensure that support for health and wellbeing is sustained. Exit interviews regularly highlight the positive support that employees know is in place, or from which they have benefited.
