Excerpt for HR Zone
HRZone – an online HR publication dedicated to providing practical, tangible advice to modern day HR professionals – is pleased to have teamed up with Unum to produce an employee benefits report.
The report combines theoretical, evidence-based research with practical insight from HR directors in order to help HR professionals feel more confident in their approach to employee benefits.
For those HR professionals who are looking to create or optimise their benefits package, the article from consultant Sandra Beale will help. Sandra has run her own consultancy for many years, helping SMEs tackle the HR issues of the day, and employee benefits have featured heavily.
Her article covers all the nitty-gritty tax issues you need to know and all the potential choices you have to make in designing your benefits package.
Dr Paul Redmond from the University of Liverpool tackles a tough challenge for many organisations whose workforces are becoming multi-generational – what benefits different generations respond to. A lot of people believe Generation Y are swayed by softer benefits, but is this the truth?
Then we’ve got two practical insight pieces from HR directors at SMEs who report back on their own experience with designing, implementing and optimising benefits packages. The two companies are very different and it’s interesting to read both and see how their approaches have differed. Ultimately there’s a lot we can learn from how other HR professionals tackle the employee benefits challenge.
Finally Peter Reilly from the Institute of Employment Studies discusses flexible benefits, an increasingly popular choice for modern organisations looking to maximise choice for their employees and provide benefits packages that people really respond to.
There’s a great deal of useful information in the report, so do take some time to increase your understanding of what makes benefits packages work in modern organisations.
Let us know what you think?
