Stiltz Homelifts has secured official recognition as a Great Place To Work®, highlighting its commitment to a people-first culture.
Headquartered in Kingswinford, West Midlands, the award‑winning homelift specialist has been Certified™ by Great Place To Work®, the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience and leadership behaviours.
The certification, which is based entirely on employees’ views, saw 75% of Stiltz Homelifts’ employees saying it was a great place to work when surveyed earlier this year – a figure that sits 21 points above the average UK company.
Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent, intentional dedication to the overall employee experience and is the only official recognition based on real-time feedback from employees about their company culture. Being recognised as a top place to work, Stiltz proves to be a top place to work, according to its employees.
At Stiltz, this recognition is seen as just the start of a much longer journey, and Group People Director Tara Lochery is making employee experience one of her core priorities, working to develop a strong, positive wellness culture where there is genuine care for customers and for each other.
Regular employee satisfaction surveys have become part of Stiltz’s day-to-day operations, helping leadership listen, adjust, and improve, and this has helped the company reduce employee group turnover and increase UK headcount.
Beyond the accolade, there is a hard‑edged business case for creating a truly engaging workplace. Great Place To Work® research shows that job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a Certified™ great workplace. Employees in such organisations are 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work and twice as likely to believe they are paid fairly, share in the company’s success, and have a genuine opportunity for promotion.
For Stiltz Homelifts, the Certification validates what its employees were already feeling: that a focus on wellness, fairness, and culture is not just good practice but part of its brand.
