NFU Mutual has been recognised as a top employer in the UK after being only one of four insurers announced in the 2024 Top Employers list.

The leading rural insurer secured the honour for a second year in succession, making a list of just 112 companies and businesses throughout the UK.

Being certified as a Top Employer showcases an organisation’s dedication to a better world of work and exhibits this through excellent HR policies and people practices. The programme has certified and recognised over 2,300 Top Employers in 122 countries and regions across five continents.

Kenny Graves, HR Director at NFU Mutual, said: “NFU Mutual prides itself on being a great place to work – so we are delighted to have been recognised as a top employer in the UK for 2024.

“In line with NFU Mutual’s long-term objective to be ‘a great place to work’, we aim to provide an environment of inclusivity and diversity where our people can thrive.

“We will continue to work hard to create an environment where our people are attracted to join the organisation, can further develop their skills and feel fully engaged and empowered to make a difference.”

The Top Employers Institute programme certifies organisations based on the participation and results of their HR Best Practices Survey. The survey covers six HR domains consisting of 20 topics, including People Strategy, Work Environment, Talent Acquisition, Learning, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, Wellbeing and more.

David Plink, Top Employers Institute CEO, said: “Exceptional times bring out the best in people and organisations. And we have witnessed this in our Top Employers Certification Programme this year: exceptional performance from the certified Top Employers 2024.

“These employers have always shown that they care for the development and well-being of their people. By doing so, they collectively enrich the world of work.

“We are proud to announce and celebrate this year’s group of leading people-orientated employers: the Top Employers 2024.”
