Tribal’s Skills for Life and Work programme with Ford is designed to develop a skilled workforce committed to improving the business whilst maintaining employment opportunities now and for the future. To date, Ford has reported significant increases in:

• staff morale and performance
• production volume
• savings to labour and overhead budgets and
• safety (i.e. reduction of accidents)

This approach to developing employees’ skills has been successful in boosting people’s confidence in reading, writing and numeracy not just at work, but also at home. Carolyn Roberts, Tribal’s Ford ESF Project Manager, said:“We are delighted to be able to continue this work with Ford through this additional funding from the LDA and ESF. “This opportunity for employees to learn new skills makes a big difference not only to their working lives but to their confidence at work and at home.”
