Initiatives to retain people

Team Talk

At least once a month, every employee in Carillion should have a face to face talk with their line manager. For the manager, this is an opportunity to update the team on key changes both locally and within the business. It is also an opportunity for employees to comment and ask questions.

Reward and Benefits Management – The Thank you scheme

We have introduced various rewards and benefits programmes including a ‘thank you’ scheme, which offers considerable savings on goods and services that our people have told us they appreciate, from childcare vouchers to tax-free bicycles through the Government’s cycle to work scheme.

Occupational Health Services

Carillion operates a Plc-wide occupational health contract provided by RPS Business Healthcare for all its employees.

This includes various services such as pre-employment postal questionnaire, health surveillance, personal track safety, drug and alcohol screening, 24-hour medication advice service, referrals to an occupational health physician or nurse, which are provided free-of-charge to all our employees.
