SUMMARY:Benefits and Wellbeing Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our next FREE Bond Williams HR & Leadership event where we team up with Mercer Marsh Benefits to bring you this insightful three part seminar where Daniel Wyatt\, Senior Scheme Design Consultant\, will take us through how to create a benefit strategy that truly speaks to your employees; Connor Jones\, Senior Workplace Education Consultant\, will be delivering a session on how you can support your colleagues with the ‘Rising Cost of Living’ crisis; and Jon Wood\, Leader of Workplace Savings\, MMB Commercial will round off the session with a quick update on market trends for UK pensions then lead a workshop\, where we can collectively consider how we could redesign UK pensions to improve member engagement.  \nHOW TO USE BENEFITS TO CONNECT WITH YOUR EMPLOYEES \nWith rising inflation rates\, an energy crisis\, global recession and longer healthcare waiting lists we are seeing the majority of our clients prioritise their employee’s day-to-day wellbeing needs more than ever. The Cost of Living crisis is putting additional financial and mental strain on your employees which naturally will have an adverse effect on both productivity in the workplace and employee attrition/retention. \nWith the war for talent becoming increasingly more competitive we are seeing the need for employers to provide and introduce more support for their employees. There are many ways that you can do this but ultimately it is important that the initiatives that you do put in place are relevant and aligned to the needs of your workforce. As an employer it is your duty to be proactive and devise a benefits strategy that truly speaks to your employees\, is aligned to your wider corporate goals and objectives (e.g. ESG and DE&I) and is connected to your recruitment strategy. \nIn this workshop we will be discussing how some of our clients tackle these challenges and what the journey could and should look like\, regardless of industry. Some of the areas that we will be covering are: \n\nEmployee Listening – how can you gather and collate feedback from your employees throughout the year?\nBenefits Benchmarking – the importance of understanding where your benefits strategy places against the General Market and companies within your sector(s)?\nAudit and Review – Is the current benefits provision fit for purpose?\nHarmonisation – Have you recently been through either a merger or acquisition? Have you considered creating a unified scheme that is equal and fair to all employees across the business?\n\nThroughout this session we will be asking the audience to regularly interact with us via the Slido tool so it would be great if all attendees can please come equipped with a smartphone. \nHOW YOU CAN SUPPORT YOUR COLLEAGUES WITH THE ‘RISING COST OF LIVING’ CRISIS \nIt is no secret that the current rising cost of living crisis has forced individuals to make tough decisions about their finances. In fact\, in a recent study carried out by the Money and Pensions Service\, it was found that 24 million UK adults don’t feel confident in managing their money day-to-day. \nTo help try to mitigate some of this apprehension\, and to ease some of the tension that we are all inevitably experiencing right now\, the Workplace Education Team at Mercer Marsh Benefits have created a wealth of material geared towards helping individuals to become more financially well. \nREIMAGINING PENSIONS \nMore than 10 years have passed since the introduction of Automatic Enrolment in the UK. Whilst automatic enrolment has been a success in enrolling more people into pensions; has enough been done to encourage greater engagement with pensions in the UK? \nJon Wood\, Leader of Workplace Savings for Mercer Marsh Benefits will provide a quick update on market trends for UK pensions and then lead a workshop\, where we can collectively consider how we could redesign UK pensions to improve member engagement. \nThere will be no wrong or right answers! \nThis session has been put together for anyone that works in HR or Leadership roles or specialises in Benefits & Rewards. \nClick here to reserve your place
