“It’s testament to the company culture we have at Shelforce, the leadership and management, and the initiatives we have in place here for our staff.
“We have created a hugely supportive work environment that both inspires and benefits our team, and this has created exceptional staff satisfaction, development and increased employee engagement with Shelforce’s values and goals.”
