Culture and Community
One Vision, One Community, One Epiq
Our Culture and Community programme is how we bring our values to life. It’s how we create a workplace where people feel connected, supported, and empowered to grow. It’s how we ensure that everyone, regardless of role, background, or location, can thrive and make a meaningful impact.

Employee Engagement: Key Drivers and Their Impact
Our 2024 engagement survey identified three key drivers that matter most to our employees. These focus areas guide our efforts to build stronger teams, clearer pathways for growth, and a more connected workplace experience.
Belonging
Belonging emerged as our number one Epiq driver. It’s the common thread that unites our global community. From professional development and inclusive leadership to recognition and team connection, every action we take is rooted in the belief that belonging drives performance.
Career
Providing clear pathways for advancement, opportunities for skill enhancement, and platforms for career exploration empowers our people to envision a future within Epiq. Investing in professional development elevates individual success and drives collective organisational excellence.
Communication
Effective communication is crucial for employee engagement as it fosters transparency, trust, and collaboration within the organisation. Employees who feel informed and heard are more likely to be invested in their work and aligned with the company’s goals.
