Employee Benefits
All Klimatec employees have access to a range of health, wellbeing & financial benefits
Death in Service
Klimatec employees are auto-enrolled into the company’s DIS policy, operated by Canada Life. The primary benefit offers employees a value of five times their current salary if they were to die whilst still being employed by Klimatec & will pay out regardless of the cause of death & is available to any employee up to the age of 75. Policy automatically ends if an employee would leave.
Health Assessments
Klimatec employees will receive a complimentary health assessment annually. This assessment typically covers blood pressure, hearing, cholesterol & hand-arm-vibration. Employees then have the option to upgrade their annual assessment to a Bupa consultation. This also includes access to a nurse 24/7, online mental wellbeing support & access to the My Bupa app.
Pensions
Klimatec employees are auto-enrolled to Klimatec’s pension scheme, whereby they pay 5% of their basic salary into the pension plan. Klimatec also pays in 5%. Klimatec is also part of the salary sacrifice scheme which sees the company contribute an additional 50% of the NI contribution that the company saves based on the employees contribution.
Mental Health Reps
Klimatec is fortunate to have four qualified Mental Health Representatives who are available during working hours to support colleagues with any issues they may have, or who may need some impartial, non-judgmental advice. Adrian, Becky, Eddie & Holly were trained to deal with first point mental health queries & have proven to be a helpful & beneficial avenue for any employee.
Good Catch Scheme
Klimatec rewards employees with £250 towards new tools if an employee logs the most near misses or good catches for that quarter. Near misses are unplanned events that did not result in an injury but had the potential to do so. A good catch is something that could have happened which would have caused an injury but didn't as it was prevented from happening.
Sponsor Local Teams
Klimatec has sponsored many local sporting teams that include a child(ren) of employees. Sponsorship can include uniform, kit or event branding. Klimatec also sponsors employees directly when participating in fundraising activities, such as running, swimming & cycling, helping them to reach their funding goals & raising awareness.
Mentoring Group
Klimatec recently launched a new internal mentoring group for apprentices & any employee with five or less years industry experience. The group, led by senior engineer Matt Christofi, was established to help guide & support those who are younger and/or have less work-based experience across all aspects of the job, including difficulties they may encounter.
