"Natural Gas Services Ltd was set up in 1995 by five former British Gas engineers and managers in their 40s and 50s. Instead of planning for early retirement, we set up our own company. We now run a successful gas installation and service company based in Hull, which has increased turnover threefold.
We first read about Age Positive in our local newspaper and registered our interest right away. We had already operated an Age Diversity Policy for some time but felt it would be more beneficial to have it written down. The Policy is now communicated to all staff via newsletters and Development Group Meetings.
We recruit from all age groups. Each end of the scale has something to give and learn - and that benefits our staff and the company as a whole."
