Performance and pay are reviewed annually in March. Where a discretionary bonus applies, eligibility normally requires the employee to be employed and not under notice on the payment date. The Company retains discretion over the amount and timing of any bonus.
Business expenses must be pre-approved where required, supported by receipts and submitted through the expenses system within 30 days. Approved expenses are reimbursed in the next payroll run. Economy class is standard for flights under six hours, and employees should choose reasonable, proportionate options.
Business travel should be booked in advance through the approved provider where possible. Mileage is reimbursed at the Company's approved rates for cars, bicycles and motorcycles, and travel time outside normal working hours may count as working time for the purposes of the Working Time Regulations.
