At Chubb Fire & Security UK & Ireland, appreciation isn’t an initiative, it’s part of our identity. In his latest Business Matters column, Managing Director Gary Moffatt explores how simple, genuine recognition can transform workplaces, especially for small and medium‑sized enterprises (SMEs).

Drawing on more than two decades of experience at Chubb, Gary highlights a universal truth: people remember how you make them feel. A sincere “thank you” builds long‑lasting trust, motivation and loyalty, crucial ingredients for high‑performing teams.

Chubb has shaped a culture where every contribution is valued through programmes such as:

• Chubb Cheers – digital eCards for everyday gratitude
• BRAVO Awards – celebrating teamwork and excellence
• Chubb Superstars – our annual event of teammates who go above and beyond
• Loyalty Awards – honouring long‑standing commitment

These initiatives reflect our values-led approach: win with integrity, together.

A strong culture of recognition not only boosts morale; but it also fuels performance, retention and resilience. When people feel valued, they don’t just do great work; they help build great businesses. At Chubb, we see that impact every day.
