FORD ROOFING LEADS INDUSTRY WITH GROUNDBREAKING FREE CHILDCARE INITIATIVE
Pioneering roofing company sets new standard for employee support with fully equipped complimentary daycare facility.*
Ford Roofing, one of the UK's most progressive construction firms, today announced a landmark decision to provide comprehensive childcare facilities for all staff members during school holidays, positioning itself at the forefront of employee welfare innovation within the construction industry.
Following extensive consultation with their workforce, company directors Mark Ford and Lou Ford have committed to implementing a state-of-the-art daycare service at zero cost to employees, directly addressing the financial pressures facing working families across Britain.
The initiative, finalised yesterday evening and immediately communicated to staff via the company's internal platforms, represents a strategic investment in business continuity whilst demonstrating Ford Roofing's unwavering commitment to its diverse workforce.
The fully equipped childcare facility will feature comprehensive entertainment and educational resources, including television entertainment, gaming consoles (Xbox and PlayStation), age-appropriate games, creative art supplies with colouring books and drawing materials, plus a full range of educational resources designed to provide children with engaging choices throughout their time at the facility.
"As we enter an exciting expansion phase, attracting exceptional talent and expertise, we recognised the imperative to address the bigger picture of sustainable business continuity," stated Mark and Lou Ford jointly. "Our team includes dedicated single parents and caregivers who form the absolute foundation of our success. It would be counterproductive to develop continuity plans that overlook the very individuals whose unwavering commitment drives our achievements."
The directors continued: "The escalating cost of living has significantly impacted families nationwide, and we believe progressive employers must step forward to provide meaningful support wherever possible. This isn't simply about supervision – we're creating an environment where children can genuinely enjoy their time whilst their parents focus on delivering the exceptional service our clients expect."
This pioneering move reinforces Ford Roofing's position as an industry leader not only in construction excellence but also in creating supportive, family-focused working environments that enable their workforce to thrive both professionally and personally.
The comprehensive childcare provision will commence immediately, with full implementation for the school holiday period.
