Jet2 plc scooped two accolades at the ProShare Awards on Wednesday for its ShareSave Scheme.
The brand new scheme won Best International Share Plan, after the company successfully launched it across Spain, Portugal and the UK in August this year.
Jet2 plc also scooped the award for Most Effective Communication of an Employee Share Plan (5,001-50,000 employees).
The company launched the ShareSave scheme for the first time in August this year.
Over 5,700 colleagues (over 60% of those eligible) took the opportunity to save up to £500 every month for three years and then use that money to buy Jet2 shares at a 20% discount from the August 2022 share price, or have their money back.
A dedicated communications plan was put in place to support the launch and to inform colleagues.
This service has seen companies win high-profile awards such as Which? Travel Brand of the Year and Trip Advisor’s Best Airline – UK.
In addition, Jet2.com was also featured in Glassdoor’s Top 50 Best Places to Work earlier this year.
Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2 Plc, said: “Our brilliant colleagues are the most important driver of our continued success and growth, and there is no team in the industry that works as hard to do the right thing for customers day in, day out.
“It is critical that we look after our all-important colleagues and make sure they have the opportunity to share in the company’s success, and the launch of our new ShareSave scheme has been a great way to do that.
“We have received outstanding feedback since it launched, and to win these two accolades at the ProShare awards is further recognition of how successful it has been.”
