Contracting Matters

When you look after over 10,000 contractors on a daily basis, you don’t always get things 100% right but the thing with Parasol is that we aim for 100% and if it’s not perfect we do all we can to make it so. Sometimes things are outside of our control but we always take ownership, sometimes we do get things wrong but we will put our hand up and rectify it. We got lots of really positive feedback and in 2010 it might seem that “testimonials” are old hat or quite often written by marketeers with little basis in truth. I can hand on heart say that all we have ever published is good honest genuine reaction to what we do and I am proud of our record and the dedication of our teams to consistently deliver service excellence. Here is a real example from today and says so much (I think) about our attitude to peoples livelihoods:

“First of all, thank you so much for getting back to me so quickly..I really do appreciate it.

I would just like to say (again!) how impressed I am with Parasol. Although I’ve ‘temped’ on and off for years, it’s the first time I’ve signed up with an umbrella company, and I have to admit I wasn’t sure what to expect! I checked out a few companies first, and the thing that really struck me about your company was how you seemed to be dedicated to providing a great service to your customers. So far I haven’t been disappointed…in fact, the exact opposite! You seem to offer a friendly, helpful, yet entirely professional service…and based on my experience so far I’d be more than happy to recommend you to other people in my position.”

We don’t ask for the plaudits, but are really happy when we get them as it’s real evidence that we care and are dedicated to doing the right thing.
