Rewards and benefits

We take great care of our people – right from recruitment and remuneration through to professional and personal development.

Of course, benefits, terms and conditions sometimes vary between our companies and according to the country of hire – but here’s a general guide.

Financial Benefits

We believe in sharing our success:

  • Share/Stock Plans and Save for Shares schemes
    • Operated through our parent company Pearson Plc, these enable our employees to own a stake in our businesses.
  • Pension and Life Assurance
    • UK employees can save for the future through the Pearson Group Pension Plan, benefiting from life assurance cover of up to four times their salary. Outside the UK, we provide competitive local pension and life assurance provisions.
  • Company Loans
    • We offer interest-free loans to help you buy travel season tickets.
  • Holiday
    • We offer competitive paid holiday allowances in line with the country of hire.

Health, well-being and family life

Because there’s more to life than work:

  • Working parents
    • We offer generous leave arrangements for working parents, which include enhanced maternity leave, paternity leave and parental leave.
  • Private Medical Insurance
    • Our employees enjoy free private medical insurance, with concessionary rates for immediate family members.
  • Gym
    • To help you stay fit and healthy, we offer subsidised membership of selected gymnasiums close to our offices in most locations.
  • “PeopleLine"
    • All FT employees and their immediate families have access to a confidential service providing help and advice on financial, emotional, health and legal issues. It’s paid for by the FT but managed by an external company to ensure complete confidentiality.
  • Other Facilities
    • Some of our larger locations also offer an occupational health service and on-site restaurant and dining facilities.
