DRAGON LNG has been recognised for its commitment to employees.

The company has joined an exclusive group of UK employers eligible to display the sought-after Investors in People (IiP) logo and plaque.

General manager Colin Orr Burns added: “Achieving the prestigious IiP award is a visible acknowledgement of the efforts that Dragon has made over the past few years to become an employer of choice in the area.

“We are nothing without our people, so ensuring that we recruit, train and deploy the talents of the best people is critical to our success.

“IiP gives a focus for our efforts and I am delighted that our achievements have been acknowledged in this way.
