Medicash is a health cash plan that allows you to claim back the cost of treatments such as dental appointments, opticians, chiropractor, reflexology, specialist appointments, vaccinations, health screenings and so much more. It also has additional features such as a virtual GP, skin cancer screening tool, wellbeing app, digital physiotherapy, gym and retail discounts.

Our staff shopping site ‘Emporium’ allows you to buy a wide range of products at substantial discount. You can also set up an account for up to 15 friends and family members as well. We also operate a Savings Scheme which gives you the opportunity to save throughout the year for Christmas purchases on Emporium.

We provide support to our teams through an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP). This service provides confidential advice on a range of issues including family matters, relationships, financial worries, legal matters, bereavement, stress and housing issues. If needed, you can also access 8 sessions of counselling via this service.

Club Avolta is a loyalty scheme you can use when travelling. You can get great discounts and collect points when shopping in our stores and with other travel partners.

Car parking whilst at work is provided at most of our UK locations. Arrangements vary from location to location so contact your HR team for more information.

If you recommend someone for a vacancy and they are placed successfully and complete the required qualifying period then we will reward you with Emporium vouchers or a one-off payment.

If you need support to buy a season/annual travel card then we can provide you with a loan for this which is then paid back over 10 months via a deduction from your salary.

Your annual leave or holiday entitlement will depend on your shift pattern and grade and will increase after 3 years and 5 years’ service with the business.

Love cycling or want a healthier, greener way to commute? With our Cycle2Work scheme, you can get a new bike and gear while saving between 28% and 47% thanks to tax benefits. Plus, spreading the cost over 12 to 18 months makes it even more affordable!

A number of locations have discounted public transport travel for those with Airport ID Passes. Your HR Team will be able to provide you with further information.

We have links with various providers for a range of discounts on retail, travel, days out. You may also be able to get discounts in the other retailers/operators within your location. We also have two staff shops which have discounted goods and frequently run sample sales throughout the year.

Long service awards are one of the ways we use to say thank you for your loyalty. We recognise those individuals who have achieved 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 years service (and beyond!) with Emporium vouchers, pin badges and an annual celebration event.
