“Benefits in the 2030s: the macro trends highlighting the need to rethink strategies before it’s too late”
Benefits & wellbeing are a fundamental part of any organisation’s EVP, in terms of both competitive reward and supporting a healthy, productive workforce.
In this session, we’ll share insights from 7 macro trends that are evidence for the failings in current approaches to benefits and wellbeing and how, despite the investment, engagement and productivity aren’t improving.
We’ll also share the insights HR & Reward professionals need to re-think their approach, tackle the problems head-on and measure outcomes, which, when done right, can have a hugely positive impact for employees and employers alike.
Peter Brauer, CEO – Turning Point HR
“The five best retention tools in your reward proposition”
Knowing the market value for your roles is crucial in attracting and retaining your top talent. Ensuring you offer a competitive package will go some way to achieving this, but is it the whole story?
In his presentation, Peter will outline the five key tools that you need to consider in order to differentiate your company in a competitive market.
- It’s all about the money – isn’t it?
- Working from home is a benefit we are proud to offer – really?
- That work life balance thing seems slightly imbalanced
- We can’t all progress to be CEO, surely?
- A job for life – what could be better?
By deconstructing some popular myths and putting forward some creative suggestions, Peter will walk you through the current reward landscape with some left field observations and factual data insights
