Overview

Our employees are our most valuable resource, and therefore it's critical that we involve them and listen to them. We also need to enable people to do their jobs, help them resolve issues and reward them for doing the right thing.

Legal & General is proud of its strong, open partnership with its employees and its trade union, Amicus, and we are committed to communication and consultation. We think it's important to have a meritocratic working environment in which all employees have the opportunity for development but place co-operation and teamwork over self-interest, and we aim to provide a supportive, ethical working culture, without sacrificing competitiveness.

The People Values we encourage

The values we encourage are customer focus; teamwork; open and fair and results driven. These values form part of the Performance Management Review, with employees being assessed on their demonstration of them in their work.
