Employee Recognition

Employee Recognition

SOS Homecare aim to be 'acknowledged as a leading and supportive local care employer.' We aim to ensure employees feel supported and valued, and we aim to do this by offering:

• A Comprehensive induction
• A staff portfolio
• A supported period of employment (shadowing a more experienced employee)
• An ongoing mentor/senior carer for support and guidance
• Ongoing development through undertaking your Care Certificate, Health & Social Care Diploma's Level 2 & 3 (formerly NVQ's) and further service user specific training.

In addition we appreciate that employees deserve to feel recognition for their work and aim to show our gratitude by:

• Paying a competitive salary
• Offering a pension scheme
• Paid training
• Refer a Friend Scheme - £200 per referral subject to qualifying criteria.
• Paid mileage

We also believe that employees need to feel comfortabale and supported at work. We therefore promote a posiitve working environment and our managers have an open-door policy to help employees feel supported and at ease in raising problems (personal or work-related). We aim to be a flexible as possible and balance the needs of those we support with the needs of those we employ.

We ensure that our employees are treated as an individual that is valued, and not someone who becomes forgotten.
