In Deans Blinds case they first qualified for the standard in 1993 and have been successfully re-assessed no less than seven times. One effect of applying the Investors in People standard has been in staff retention – with an average length of service of over 18 years across 30- staff members this speaks for itself; especially when you consider the last three new employees joined less those 12-months ago.
