TBAT moved all employees to full-time remote working when the pandemic began. It has since reopened its offices with the permanent addition of fully flexible working for all staff.

But to further support their work life balance and promote employee wellbeing, the firm has also introduced wellbeing days, which allow staff to take a day off at short notice with no explanation needed, to unwind, de-stress, re-charge and prioritise their mental health – without the requirement to book holiday or take a sick day.

Matt Symonds, managing director at TBAT, said “Supporting our team is one of our top priorities as a business. Without the team, we wouldn’t be able to provide the consistently high level of service our clients receive.

“Giving everyone the ability and freedom to work in their chosen environments, as well as the addition of Wellbeing Days to maintain good mental health is essential and encourages a healthier work life balance.”
