Happy New Year! & Thank You to our Temporary Workforce

Firstly a very Happy New Year from all the team at Harris Jones Recruitment. 

2020 was certainly an unusual year for everyone, both on a business and personal level. 

We hope that 2021 will be a brighter year for us all and with the vaccine becoming more readily available to many we remain optimistic.

When lockdown hit in March 2020, our clients and candidates quickly adapted to a new way of working and our temps began providing support to our clients from home, with many starting 2021 still working from the safety of their homes. For that we want to say a huge THANK YOU, to candidates and clients in adapting to this, so easily. 

For those that unfortunately couldn’t continue working, we embraced the furlough scheme, to provide support to as many temporary workers that were eligible. As a small business, we were very happy to be able to provide this to people in such uncertain times.  

The team at Harris Jones have always enjoyed meeting with clients and candidates and in particular awarding our temps on a monthly basis with a 'Temp of the Month' award. As we were unable to visit candidates for the majority of this year we sent an end of year gift in the post to show our appreciation of them instead.  Below are some of the messages of thanks, we received in response and the pictures show the gifts received. 

Once again, Thank You, from all at Harris Jones Recruitment for your continued support and belief. We’ve enjoyed working with our community for the last 27 years and fully intend to keep working with them for the next 27 years!

We look forward to working with you further in the New Year! 

Here’s some of the lovely responses received from people once the received their gifts.

''A big thank you to Harris Jones for their special care and support during a year of great uncertainty and unpredictable events. With your friendly help, I've managed to secure a contract with a wonderful company which has kept me going since February. My Christmas would not have been the same without your kindness and to top it all off, I received a delightful gift in the post on Thursday as an expression of gratitude for all my hard work this year! I'm looking forward to sipping tea from my new mug while tucking into another mince pie... Wishing you all a very happy Christmas and a peaceful Festive Season!”

“Thank you so much for your kind gift.  It was a very nice and thoughtful surprise. This year has been quite challenging due to COVID-19, so thank you for all your support and staying positive.  Wishing you both and your team a great Xmas and new year.”

“I would like to say a big thankyou to all the staff at Harris Jones who made my day with this lovely Bear Hug in a Mug and Tea Pig tea bags.  Whilst we are not able to hug our family, friends and loved ones a 'hug in a mug' is such a lovely way to let people know you are thinking of them especially in the tough year we have all had.  Thank you for all your support too Harris Jones and here's to a better, happier and healthier 2021 for everyone” 

“I just wanted to say thank you for your beautiful Christmas gift. How thoughtful of you all. It really made my day.  I hope you all keep well and safe over Christmas, and enjoy the day as much as possible. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!”

“Thanks again, it’s a really nice touch. I hope you all have a great Christmas at Harris Jones!”
