PEOPLE FIRST INDEX WELCOMES YOU
Helping create working environments that put people before profits.

ABOUT PEOPLE FIRST INDEX
People are making choices for ethical rather than financial reasons more than ever before. Consumers are demanding transparency in supply chain, labour, animal testing, and chemical makeup. This also extends to employment. People are making decisions about who they want to work for, and who's services / products they want to purchase based on how they treat their employees.
We believe that the best organisations to work for are the ones that put people at the centre of everything they do.
At People First Index, we work with you to understand your current people policies and practices and recommend opportunities to put people before profits, ultimately contributing positively to your bottom line.
The People First Index framework has been developed specifically to measure and identify these opportunities, using years of HR research, expertise and international case studies as the foundation.
At People First Index our values underpin everything we do:
Integrity - we do what we say we will do
Valued - all people and relationships are treated with respect, fairness and equality
Doing good - all actions are for the greatest good
PEOPLE FIRST INDEX FRAMEWORK
By assessing your organisation's people policies and practices against progressive, researched criteria and providing this feedback to your organisation, you can understand where and how you can make changes to your working practices and culture that would help make your people feel as though they are treated fairly, respectfully and as though they are as important as shareholder value.
The People First Index framework aims to support organisations to be the best place to work for their people, so that they are able to:
Be themselves
Give within the bounds they are contracted to give
Be given meaningful work for a cause they believe in
Be treated with fairness and equality

This includes interviewing a cross-section of 2-5% of employees, and working with your organisation lead to attain policies and examples of practices.
We then provide a report outlining the organisation's position on it's people policies and practices
