Convenience Colleague Survey 2026

Thank you for taking part in ACS' Convenience Colleague Survey!
Working in Convenience
This survey aims to explore your views about working in the UK convenience sector. The questions will cover your job role, work-life balance, workplace safety, job satisfaction and more.

The results from this survey help to understand the experiences of convenience colleagues and advise employers on improvements to your working environment. These results also feature in campaigns such as ShopKind, and the Local Shop Report.

The survey will take around 15 minutes to complete. All questions are optional and all responses are anonymous, meaning no answers you provide will be traceable to you or your employer.

Completing this survey will also give you the chance to win a £100 One4All voucher (more details on the following page).

The deadline for responses is 27th February 2026.
