Investors in People

Since 1991, leading companies across the UK have been working towards, or have achieved, the Investors in People Standard. They recognise that their success depends on their employees - and that Investors in People is an effective way to make the most of them. To keep the Standard in line with the latest thinking, it is reviewed regularly (approximately every five years). The most recent review was in November 2004 when a revised version of the Standard was launched. From 31 December 2005, the previous version was discontinued and you will only be accredited using the revised Standard.

This briefing outlines:

  • What Investors in People is, and the benefits it offers.
  • How to work towards Investors in People.
  • How to achieve and maintain the Standard.
  • Where to get help.
