Our Approach

The Go-Ahead Board is ultimately responsible for the Group’s corporate responsibility. We do not have separate Board-level committees for corporate responsibility and health and safety as we believe it is fundamental for the Board to be involved in both areas which are integral to our business.

In particular:

  • The Group’s flat structure enables the Board to closely monitor the performance of each operating company.
  • Safety and energy Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are reviewed at monthly operating company board meetings, chaired by the Group Chief Executive and Group Finance Director.
  • Internal safety and energy targets for each of our operating companies are set at the beginning of the financial year and progress against these targets is linked to both operating company senior managers’ and Group Executive Directors’ remuneration.
  • A health and safety audit of each of our businesses is undertaken by an external consultant each year.
