Overview
E&O transitioned to a 62.5% employee-owned business (EOT) in 2024. This means that you can add value to the company’s future by working hard at your job and learning new skills and enjoying the extra rewards.
An employee-owned business ensures long-term job security, transparency of organisational changes and everyone has a voice within our “One-Team” structure.
The managers and supervisors respect all the different job roles, skill levels, always demonstrating empathetic training and mentoring for all new starts and cross training of other employees for career progression.
Our professional “One-Team” culture encourages leadership and promotion from within, long-term job security and a great working environment.
E&O is continually improving productivity and efficiencies by investing in its staff, equipment, processes whilst meeting all governmental legislation around compliance of products and services.
Why are we telling you all of this?
