Drax aims to give all their employees a comprehensive range of benefits. All employees are encouraged to join the Drax pension scheme, and receive BUPA healthcare cover. Drax also currently operates a Share Incentive Plan whereby eligible employees receive awards of free shares, are able to purchase Partnership shares which are then matched on a one for one basis with matching (free) shares.

Due to the contracts Drax has with various local companies, employees at Drax are entitled to various benefits, including discounted gym membership, discounted membership at the Drax sports and social club, and access to childcare vouchers and other discounts.
