Cripps Harries Hall LLP, the leading south east law firm, has been recognised as one of the UK’s top employers in ‘The Sunday Times 100 Best Companies To Work For 2010’ list, published on 7 March 2010.

Cripps were one of only seven law firms to be listed – beating many of the country’s largest and best known firms onto the list. Competition this year was even stronger than in previous years with over 950 companies taking part, a 37 percent increase from last year.

The award, now in its 10^th year, is based on an in depth 66 question survey completed by employees measuring eight equally weighted workplace “factors” that have been identified from extensive research within the UK. Employees were asked for feedback about how they feel about the head of the company, its most senior managers and the people they work with; how they feel about stress, pressure and the balance between their work and home life, how happy staff are with their pay and benefits and how much companies are thought to put back into society and the community.

Michael Stevens, Senior Partner said:

“We are delighted with this result as it demonstrates we have kept our employees happy in a particularly challenging economic climate. To achieve a place in the top 100 in the firm’s second year of participation shows our commitment to providing the very best working environment.

“This recognition is particularly rewarding given that the assessment is based on confidential surveys sent to everyone in the firm. The results also provide useful feedback on areas for improvement and we will use this to agree our actions for 2010 to ensure that Cripps Harries Hall remains a place where people enjoy working.”
