At Identity, we pride ourselves on our fantastic team, who all follow a set of core values: TRACC. This stands for Teamwork, Responsibility, Ambitious, Creative and Caring. This value system allows our company to strive for the best from all our staff members.

Our TRACC values are promoted throughout Identity, encouraging effective teamwork, driving productivity and efficiency, improving staff morale and much more.

At our staff Christmas party, Identity’s board of directors present awards for special recognition to members of the team who have demonstrated the highest level of these values, with one person then chosen as our overall TRACC Award winner. Take a look below to find out who the 2018 winners are:
