We're proud to announce that Leighton has been recognised as one of the UK's Best Workplaces for Wellbeing™ by Great Place to Work® for a second year.

The UK's Best Workplaces for Wellbeing™ list recognises organisations that go above and beyond to create environments where employees can thrive. The award celebrates employers that prioritise wellbeing through supportive leadership, meaningful benefits, a positive workplace culture, and initiatives that help people feel valued, supported and able to perform at their best.

Our inclusion on this list reflects our ongoing commitment to creating a consistently positive employee experience and fostering a culture where our people can flourish. Over the past 18 months, we've introduced a range of new benefits and policies to strengthen our commitment to employee wellbeing, including enhanced flexible working policies, improved colleague health benefits, and continued investment in creating a supportive and inclusive workplace.

To compile the UK's Best Workplaces for Wellbeing™ list, Great Place To Work® analysed anonymous employee feedback alongside an assessment of our workplace culture and people practices. The organisations recognised are those that consistently demonstrate a commitment to supporting employees' physical, mental, financial and social wellbeing.

Our colleague feedback highlighted particular strengths in fairness, communication and community.

James Bunting, Chief Executive Officer at Leighton, said:

"Being recognised as one of the UK's Best Workplaces for Wellbeing is something we're incredibly proud of. We know that when our colleagues feel supported, valued and empowered, they do their best work. This recognition reflects the culture we've worked hard to build and our ongoing commitment to creating an environment where everyone can thrive."

This marks another significant milestone in our Great Place To Work journey, adding to the recognition we've received over the past four years. We're proud of this achievement and will continue using the valuable insights provided by Great Place To Work to strengthen our culture and enhance the wellbeing of everyone at Leighton.
