Feeling engaged and valued is really important to us regardless of where our team members work, the role they do, or the country they are based in. David Lloyd Clubs has always been committed to fostering an inclusive workforce and creating a place where everyone belongs, and that now extends to being able to provide all our international teams with a new raft of features, through the new ‘DLConnect’ app, including multi-lingual capabilities.
