Overview

Legal & General is proud of its strong, open partnership with its employees and its trade union, Amicus, and we’re committed to communication and consultation. We believe that working in partnership with Amicus ensures our employment policies and practices are sound and appropriate for our business.

Values

Our Company Values are ‘customer focus’, ‘teamwork’, ‘open and fair’ and ‘results driven’. These Values are fully embraced by senior management, along with definitions that describe how the Values are demonstrated when employees are working well together. They are important to the business because there is now significant evidence that organisations with strong agreed values deliver better results and are more enjoyable to work in than those that do not have them. The Values form part of each employee’s performance management review.
