One of the most important exercises post the completion of the annual appraisal is the vision and value (V&V) analysis. In this exercise, the alignment of each employee to the values is calculated and then alignment of each department to the values of the company is calculated. Post the analysis, a detailed plan of action is chalked out. ‘Value Workshops’ are conducted for the departments that have scored the least, sensitive cases are further escalated to the ‘Value Digression Committee’, results are shared with the managers for their self reflection and the winners are awarded the Value Champion awards.

For the female employees, they have a special initiative called ‘Meljol.’ As an organization, Forbes Marshall is very supportive of their employees (be it financially or emotionally). For instance, if there is an untoward happening in the family of an employee; the company makes arrangements to provide the spouses with work and in case where children are left with no parents, the company takes upon itself the responsibility of their education and accommodation. Therefore ‘care for employees’ include both professional and personal well-being.
