Our People The following are specific workplace practices that Regency employees told us they value:
Increased Workplace Flexibility
Improved Frequent Communication
Talent Attraction and Retention We understand the importance of attracting and retaining the best talent in order to build long-term value. We strive to provide an environment where our people are connected to their teams, passionate about what they do and supported to deliver their best efforts and results. Our annual employee engagement survey provides an avenue for feedback that allows us to understand what we are doing right and importantly, what we could do better. In 2020, 90% of employees participated in our survey providing valuable insight into employee sentiment during a particularly challenging year. We are very proud that our efforts to transition to a remote work environment, remain connected and productive, and support each other through the global pandemic were reflected in an engagement score of 87%.
Employee Support
Training and development remain key elements of our approach to talent attraction and retention. Every eligible employee receives an annual review and career development discussion. Occupational education and training is provided to all employees so they can excel in their role. We also support further education and development and in 2020, Regency Centers provided reimbursement for tuition to 12 employees who have completed college courses to further their career goals. Our people are also supported to succeed through leadership and interpersonal skills training.
Our people are our most valuable resource. As we emerge from the pandemic and enter a new phase of working, we are designing a safe and inspiring workplace that attracts, supports and develops the best team in the business. Amy D’Olimpio, Senior Vice President, Human Resources
