Why is pay transparency important?
Pay transparency is more than just a buzzword; it’s a critical component of a fair and equitable workplace. According to our research, internal equity (36%) and pay transparency (35%) are among the top challenges employers face on the reward front. Despite these challenges, only 37% of employees are satisfied with the transparency of their organization’s reward policy, and a mere 39% are satisfied with the communication about this policy and any changes to it.
How do you choose the right flexible benefits platform?
Choosing the right flexible benefits platform is key to creating a reward strategy that truly resonates with your employees. Despite the clear value of non-financial benefits, only 38% of employers currently recognize their importance. Additionally, just 20% of employers are investing in a flexible composition of the reward package.
What are flex benefits and why are they important?
Providing flex benefits, or flexible benefits, is a smart reward strategy that enables employees to select from a variety of options that best suit their personal needs and life stages. Our research shows that simply offering a range of benefits isn't enough. Employees value the ability to tailor their benefits packages, ensuring they receive the most relevant support for their current situation.
How should employee benefits support well-being?
Surprisingly, 38% of employers do not have or plan to offer any health and well-being benefits. This is a significant oversight, especially when 37% of employees are currently experiencing financial stress, a major contributor to overall mental health challenges.
How much should you spend on salary vs. employee benefits?
It’s a delicate balancing act: our research found that 43% of employers are struggling to find the sweet spot between offering attractive rewards and keeping labor costs in check. With 53% of employers noting that total wage costs are on the rise and the average salary increase projected at 11% for the coming year, the pressure is on to manage budgets wisely.
