We’re committed to creating a safe and inclusive workplace that attracts and develops the widest talent pool and underpins our business success.

We focus on representing the customers and communities we serve and provide products with great customer outcomes. We actively encourage different thoughts and ideas, enabling debate and innovation that drives increased business success. We strive to attract and retain the best talent and to support all our people in reaching their full potential.

We continue to invest in initiatives and programmes to create change and to provide opportunities for our people.

Creating a great place to work

We actively encourage our colleagues to share their experience of working at The AA through our anonymous engagement survey, Our Voice, which is open to all colleagues twice a year. Regular, structured feedback enables us to identify strengths, address emerging risks early and prioritise actions that support performance, retention and customer service.

In our December 2025 year-end survey, we achieved our strongest results to date, with a positive 76% engagement score. High and improving engagement is closely linked to productivity, customer satisfaction and colleague retention, and provides a leading indicator of organisational health. These results reflect the positive impact of our people initiatives and support our confidence in sustaining strong operational and commercial performance.

Beyond this we have other formal mechanisms to ensure people’s views are heard. Our Management Forum is an elected group to represent management-level colleagues, and our recognised trade union, Community, represents our staff grade colleagues (representing 90% of our colleagues). We are also supported by our Colleague Network groups, which help ensure diverse voices are heard and reflected in our discussions and decision-making. With all groups, meetings are held regularly to discuss business strategy, financial performance and colleague related matters.

Keeping our people and customers safe

The AA is committed to maintaining a positive health and safety culture that ensures our people, our customers and our communities get home safely every day. This year, we have continued to strengthen our safety foundations and deliver projects that enable us to improve our safety performance.

Health & safety management system

We continue to maintain our comprehensive ISO 45001 compliant health & safety management system. This system ensures we improve safety, reduce risks and create safer working conditions.

Key features of this management system include:

  • Executive leadership for our H&S programme supported by a team of in-house H&S professionals.
  • Clear H&S policy and a set of procedures to support this throughout the business.
  • Comprehensive risk assessment programme covering 100% of our sites and operations.
  • Clear H&S strategy with objectives and plans for the years ahead.
  • Ongoing monitoring of health and safety performance supported by strong incident reporting processes.

This year, The AA was awarded The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) Gold award for the seventh consecutive year for demonstrating high health and safety standards.
