Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed working with your colleagues and our focus on #TeamWork. We’re proud to run a companywide annual salary review process which uses external benchmarking data to ensure consistency and fairness in assigning increases and that we’re paying the market rate. We work together with Heads of Function and Senior Management to assign consistent increases using best practises and standardised rules, and our managers receive extensive training on how salaries are decided. We also operate pay scales in select department, such as Professional Services, which enables our employees to grow their salaries as their skills develop, which are reviewed in line with the cost of living each year. Along with competitive salaries, we also understand the importance of ‘total reward’, which is why we’re delighted to offer a range of benefits for our UK employees that can be tailored to their current needs and lifestyles, from including company-funded private healthcare, employee assistance programme, discounted gym memberships, matched pension with NI uplift, our electric car scheme and many other opt-in benefits. We also invest significantly in progression opportunities, internal and external training, regular feedback and recognition through our range of awards, extensive employee wellbeing support, and investment in volunteering and charitable initiatives. At IRIS, we highly prioritise giving all managers the skills they need to motivate, develop and inspire their teams, which is why we created our dedicated leadership pathways to do just that, as well as providing managers at every level with the tools and development they need to ensure they’re performing at their best. We’re delighted that on Peakon the vast majority of our managers score above the benchmark on employee engagement, and those not performing receive dedicated coaching, training and support to genuinely improve the engagement of their teams. We wholeheartedly encourage our employees to leave honest and constructive feedback for their manager so that they can understand how they're doing and be the best manager they can be to their team. Acting on employee feedback is at the heart of everything we do and we’re very proud to have been certified as a Great Place to Work for 5 years running in the UK, therefore we’re always looking for ways to be the best we can be, and we would welcome any further suggestions. Please reach out to the HR team or email EmployeeFeedback@iris.co.uk. Kind regards, the HR team

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re delighted to hear you recognise our amazing colleagues who champion #TeamWork and our extensive communications strategy where we keep our IRISians up to date with the latest news around the business. We’re proud to pay our employees fairly and competitively for their hard work and have been a Real Living Wage employer for many years, meaning we commit to paying a fair wage to cover at least the real cost of living in the UK as calculated by the Real Living Wage Foundation. We also run an evidence-led companywide annual salary review process each autumn, which uses external benchmarking data to ensure consistency and fairness in assigning increases and to ensure we’re paying the market rate. We also operate pay scales in select department, which enables our employees to grow their salaries as their skills develop, which are reviewed in line with the cost of living each year. We’re always looking for ways we can be the best we can be, and we would welcome any further suggestions. Please speak to your HR representative or leave a comment in our next Peakon survey. Kind regards, the HR team
