Introduction

Interface NRM, a leading certification body in the UK, proudly operates as an Employee-Owned Trust (EOT). This ownership model is integral to our identity, reflecting our commitment to creating a collaborative and inclusive workplace.

What does being an EOT company mean?

An Employee-Owned Trust (EOT) is a business model where employees collectively own a significant stake in the company. This ownership structure ensures that all employees have a direct say in the company’s decision making and future operations. At Interface NRM, our EOT status highlights our belief in valuing team contributions and aligning the interests of the business with those of our employees.

Benefits of an EOT structure

Enhanced employee engagement and motivation – One of the strongest benefits of being an EOT company is the heightened level of engagement and motivation amongst all employees within the business. When employees own a share and have a say in what will happen in the business, they are more likely to take initiative and be invested in its success, and be more motivated to work towards what is best for the business. This level of ownership creates a positive work environment, where everyone’s opinion matters.

Long-term stability – An EOT structure also provides a long-term stability for the company. Unlike traditional ownership models, which can fluctuate depending on market or individual decisions, an EOT company is a permanent structure. This permanent structure ensures continuity and stability which not only benefits the employees, but also the customers.

Attracting and retaining talent – Being an EOT company also enhances our ability to attract new employees or customers. In today’s competitive job market, businesses can stand out by being an EOT company, as it stands out as a powerful incentive. Not only does it demonstrate our commitment to each other, but it also provides a unique value proposition that sets us apart from other employers.

Customer centric approach – At Interface NRM, we take great pride in our customer-centric approach, and being an EOT company helps highlight this even more. Our employees already put a great focus on our customer satisfaction, ensuring that they are happy throughout the entire process, and addressing any problems that arise. As an EOT company, everyone understands that exceptional customer service leads to repeat business and referrals, benefiting everyone involved and encouraging us to go the extra mile for clients.
