Accreditations

LingvoHouse Translation Services Ltd

is one of a few global translation companies in London which is an ITI Accredited Translator and is also certificated to both ISO 9001:2015 & ISO17100 translation agency.

The ISO 17100 is the new internationally recognized standard for companies within the translation industry, which covers the essential processes for providing a translations service. It establishes and defines the translators, our technical resources, and the quality of service.

As part of our ongoing commitment to quality, on 5th October 2017 Lingvohouse achieved ISO 9001:2015 certification, making us one of the few translation service providers in the UK to meet this standard.

Quality & consistency are at the heart of everything we do as a translation agency. It’s because of our high standards of quality management that we are the trusted translation partner for so many organizations where the accurate and timely translation is a critical part of their operations. So for us, ISO 9001 accreditation was a logical and natural step for us to take as an agency. Find out more here…

LingvoHouse is an accredited Living Wage Employer.

Our Living Wage commitment will see all of the UK staff at LingvoHouse receive a minimum UK hourly wage. LingvoHouse is based in London, a region where nearly a fifth of all jobs (19%) pay less than the real Living Wage – around 785,000 jobs. Despite this, LingvoHouse has committed to pay the real Living Wage and deliver a fair day’s pay for a hard day’s work.

The real Living Wage is the only rate calculated according to the costs of living. It provides a voluntary benchmark for employers that wish to ensure their staff earn a wage they can live on, not just the government minimum. Since 2011 the Living Wage movement has delivered a pay rise to over 230,000 people and put over £1 billion extra into the pockets of low paid workers.
