Employee benefits that benefit employers too

Take time to appreciate employees and they will reciprocate in a thousand ways. Dr. Bob Nelson a leading expert on employee motivation

How can you have your cake and eat it? Deliver your employees benefits that benefit you too Employee benefits is the over-arching description for a range of benefits designed to recruit and retain employees, whilst also improving wellbeing, morale and productivity. Employers naturally focus a lot on remuneration base pay, short and longer-term bonuses, and maybe even equity participation but this can be something of a missed trick. Why? Because often, pound-for-pound, employee benefits can be fantastic value, delivering a true employer/employee win-win. 1

From ingredients to a recipe No two firms are the same, and no two employee benefits packages should be either So what s this big employer/employee win-win? Well, it comes down to maximising the real and perceived benefit delivered to employees per unit of cost to you as an employer. Sure, you ve got statutory responsibilities like minimum pension contributions, but outside this you have a multitude of different options. You could of course simply increase pension contributions beyond the minimum, but other alternatives might be more attractive to your employees. 2

For some, it might be protection and well-being, including life insurance, critical illness cover and private medical insurance. For others, it might be more lifestyle-oriented, for example gym memberships, health assessments or other perks. Flexible benefits schemes enable enhanced benefit personalisation, including, for example, holiday entitlement and chosen working hours. We re big fans of flexible benefits schemes, and have implemented many. We provide solutions too though for companies where the cost of such a solution might be prohibitive. Whatever your company size, we ll help you tackle the subject like you have perhaps never done before.
