Annual integrated report 2018

Note: The Human and Social and Relationship Capital information presented above does not include the discontinued operations. Bidfood UK is proud to be a fair employer and an employer of choice. According to our 2018 Employee Health and Wellbeing Survey, 73% of employees believe in our organisation, and their contributions, and feel proud to work with us. Bidfood UK, committed to equal opportunities across the workforce, conducted an in-depth exercise to test employment practices such as fair pay and terms and equal treatment regardless of gender. Along with other companies across the UK, Bidfood UK reported our gender pay gap information, identifying the differences in male and female pay across the workforce. Within Bidfood UK, we found that mean average pay is slightly higher for females than males. Our business is committed to ensuring employees are presented with a wide variety of development opportunities. Interventions include induction programmes for new starters joining warehouse and sales and the creation of an open programme of all training events scheduled across the business. Our inaugural talent programme was launched in late 2018. This bespoke leadership and succession programme will help Bidfood UK grow and develop those individuals with long-term leadership potential. Employee training and especially, health and safety, continue to be priorities. Across all our companies, the lost-time injury rate decreased and no fatalities were recorded during the reporting period. Social and relationship capital Beyond providing a service and employment, Bidfood UK believes it is important to make a difference to the local, national and global community. By engaging with the communities through various initiatives, Bidfood UK helps to empower people to make a difference and, by listening to people within these communities, helps us adjust our own priorities. Our corporate social investment spend has remained constant over the past year. Bidfresh hosted a variety of charity dinners, using onsite development kitchens to raise money for Action Against Hunger. Via social media, these dinners were used to obtain suppliers’ participation as sponsors for Action Against Hunger events. This resulted in wider coverage and reach and, most notably, a significant contribution to the charity. United Kingdom continued Human capital PCL proudly acknowledges the strong partnership with the local school, Howe Dell School. The school promotes environmental awareness and educates children in the economic and global impact of climate change.

Bidfood UK continues to support the One Foundation. The charity provides access to clean water and sanitation at projects in Africa. We help by encouraging customers to purchase “One” bottled water.
