Living Wage accreditation for Hamilton IT business
Hamilton-based IT services company Provista has been awarded the Scottish Living Wage accreditation, ensuring its entire workforce earns fair pay.
The firm has grown yearon-year since it was founded in 2006, with all staff in the team guaranteed to earn at least £8.45 an hour – above the government’s national living wage of £7.50.
Provista said it was also committing to ensuring suppliers, from cleaning agencies to contractors, are paying the living wage to their staff. Headquartered in Hamilton with office locations in Aberdeen and Birmingham, the firm provides cloud computing and support services to a range of organisations, including Balfour Beatty, Digby Brown and the Glasgow Science Centre.
Co-founder Stuart Little said: “We believe in investing in our workforce and the need to be an ethical, responsible employer.
“We recognise the benefits it will bring in terms of ensuring our employees feel valued.”
