British Airways’ benefits
Our vision is to be the most admired airline. We know that the engagement and recognition of our people is an important part of achieving this vision and delivering on our promise - To Fly. To Serve.
At British Airways, taking pride in your work, feeling rewarded, and having the opportunity to develop is central to our offer to you. In addition, you will enjoy a range of great benefits, available through our Total Rewards package, including:
Earn
Pay - British Airways offers market competitive salaries that reflect the role that you do. With opportunities to develop and learn new skills, you will also have the chance to influence and progress your career.
Bonus - When the company does well, we share the success. The company's financial, operational and customer performance is the key driver for any bonuses.
Pension - We offer all eligible employees the option to join the British Airways Retirement Plan (BARP). This is a defined contribution pension scheme in which both you and the company contribute to your pension pot.
Life assurance - If you join the company pension scheme, you'll also be eligible for life assurance cover. In the unfortunate circumstance of you dying in service, the company will pay a lump sum to your next of kin or nominated beneficiaries.
Income Protection - After the qualifying period of 5 years' service in the pension scheme, should you be unable to work long-term due to incapacity, Income Protection Insurance covers up to 50% of your basic salary and pension contributions at the same rate as the time your absence began.
Live
Fly the World - You, and your friends and family will be able to take advantage of discounted flights. After a qualifying period, you'll be eligible to unlimited standby and premium standby fares on the full BA network and with other partner airlines.
Cargo Concession - After six months working at British Airways, you'll be eligible to take advantage of an annual cargo concession of up to 250kg for the transportation of personal property on the British Airways network and will only have to pay 10% of the applicable air cargo tariff.
Wellbeing - British Airways takes the wellbeing of its colleagues seriously. Our wellbeing strategy addresses this by creating and developing a strong network of wellbeing sponsors and advisers across the organisation, who promote a number of wellbeing and inclusion initiatives. We also offer a variety of other benefits to help you develop as a professional, be empowered, healthy and productive.
Save
Discounts - You'll have access to special discounts and savings on products such as hotels and phones. So, you could get a great discount on a hotel and car hire, to tie in with your staff travel trip!
Childcare vouchers - If you have children aged 15 years or younger, the tax-free childcare scheme is a family-friendly scheme enabling you to benefit from income tax and national insurance savings on childcare costs.
Season ticket loans - To encourage you to use public transport as much as possible for the journey to work, we offer interest free loans for the purchase of season tickets (which offer considerable cost savings and convenience).
Car parking - At our Westbase site near Heathrow, you can park for free for up to two weeks when you go away on holiday, and most of our work locations around the UK offer free parking for colleagues while at work.
BA Clubs - Within BA Clubs there is an extensive range of sports and activity sections that you can join, from athletics to yachting, and from angling to yoga. These are free to join for the first year.
Restaurants - You can take advantage of the on-site subsidised catering facilities whilst at work.
