Hurst staff recognised for 20 years of service

Two Hurst employees are celebrating 20 years’ service at the Yorkshire-based door manufacturer.

Experienced team members Tammy Everitt, Credit Controller, and Robert Tylor, Panel Inspector, joined the company over two decades ago in 2005, highlighting its credentials as a stable employer with a long-term commitment to its people.

“We’d like to congratulate Tammy and Robert on this significant employment milestone,” said Kevin Wheatman, General Manager at Hurst.

“They are both a credit to Hurst, and it’s been a pleasure to have them on board for the past two decades.”

Of Hurst’s 163 employees, more than 25% have reportedly chalked up 20 years’ service, while 38% have been with the business for more than a decade.

With an internal training programme focused on personal development and workplace wellbeing, Hurst says it is committed to improving employee capability and supporting a healthy, resilient workforce.

Encouraging leadership from within, the company says it proactively seeks to increase employee engagement across every department, from manufacturing and logistics to administration and customer service, creating a positive and inclusive culture throughout.

“For our customers, knowledgeable and experienced staff like Tammy and Robert contribute to higher manufacturing quality, better service delivery and stronger day-to-day installer support,” added Kevin.

“They help to ensure smoother ordering processes, reliable production schedules and continuity of relationships that really benefit installers.

“We put our long-term success down to prioritising our people and we’ve invested in training and staff progression to create a workplace where experience is valued and respected.

“This not only benefits employees but it strengthens the overall customer experience and that’s something we’re really proud of.”
