HR and Payroll System In 2009, following the implementation of the new HR and Payroll system, we launched a self-service programme which allows employees access to their files. In addition, our managers also now have access to their employees’ information which acts as a management reporting tool in a number of key areas including attendance.

Recruitment and Selection Following a new recruitment policy and subsequent management training, we now have a recruitment and selection accreditation process for our managers which sets a series of standards and measures their ability to recruit effectively, in line with best practice. We also launched a new induction programme and ‘buddy scheme’ for new starters to ensure that we integrate new employees into the company as quickly and effectively as possible.
In addition, we focused on improving service levels and costs in this area. We reviewed recruitment methods across the business and implemented Preferred Supplier Agreements with a number of recruitment agencies which has resulted in a reduction in placement fees across the business. Secondly, we focused on direct recruitment either via our website, our Employee Referral Scheme or from speculative CVs. These initiatives have proven to be very successful and as a result in 2009 we saved 44% on our recruitment costs against 2008.
Reward and Recognition We launched two new benefits in 2009 – Childcare Vouchers and a Holiday Buy Scheme.
Our 2009 Employee of the Year was Vickie Spencer, Human Resources Manager. Vickie was nominated for the service she provided to the business in ‘sustaining a strong and ambitious team of people in an environment that encourages and rewards commitment and delivery of results’ and ‘creating maximum value for our record company and performer members’.
Louise Allotey (PPO), Mary Hutchings (PPO), James Lavelle (Music Reporting), Kieran Walsh (PPO) and James Ward (Distribution) were recognised for achieving the 10 year service milestone with the company. Sacha Colgate (Distribution) and Jackie Lau (PPO) were recognised for 15 years’ service, whilst Kirk Annett (Distribution) reached 20 years.
