LNER named among UK's top employers for fifth consecutive year

LNER has once again been named a UK top employer by the Top Employers Institute.

The award recognises LNER for its excellent work in areas including employee health and wellbeing, work environment and performance development. It’s the fifth year running that LNER has won the award.

Top Employer status demonstrates LNER’s commitment and passion for creating a better world of work which is achieved by developing effective experiences through authentic people practices, policies and truly understanding every employee’s journey.

Claire Ansley, LNER People Director, said:

“At LNER we know that we would be nothing without our incredible people.

"This Top Employer award is testament to our commitment and genuine passion for providing the very best possible employee experience for our colleagues to ensure we can ultimately provide the very best experience for our customers.

"To have now won this award for five years in row is a wonderful achievement."

The Top Employer Institute is the global authority on recognising excellence in people practices, certifying organisations based on the participation and results of their HR Best Practices Survey.

David Plink, Top Employers Institute CEO, said:

“Exceptional times bring out the best in people and organisations. And we have witnessed this in our Top Employers Certification Programme this year: exceptional performance from the certified Top Employers 2024.

"These employers have always shown that they care for the development and wellbeing of their people. By doing so, they collectively enrich the world of work.

"We are proud to announce and celebrate this year’s group of leading people-oriented employers: the Top Employers 2024.”
