As of period 3, there's a slight change in our top five reporting job roles. Bus drivers have entered in fifth place, accounting for 8% of all roles in 2025/26 so far. For reference, bus drivers account for approximately 6% over four years.
As of period three, there's a slight change in our top six reporting themes, with health and wellbeing entering in second place. Health and wellbeing is one of the most reported themes, so we expect to hear more as the year goes on.
We have also noticed a slight increase in reports that discuss concerns about training and competence. One example of a report with this theme was a concern over the onboarding process for newly recruited staff at a depot. In another example, also impacting a depot, there was a concern that changes were being made to day-to-day operations but without staff being adequately trained for the new tasks.
Similar to previous years, 2025/26 is so far dominated by concerns about risk management or assets (which can refer to the lack of, or conditions of, equipment or vehicles).
