Benefits Communication
Ensuring that business communication is effective is a huge challenge for employers when communicating employee reward. This has led to a rise in the popularity of the total reward statement. Many companies run seminars and presentations on financial education or bring in IFAs to offer financial advice. Employee communication is a challenge as benefits managers try to use all the media tools at their disposal to market the employee reward package including: seminars, presentations, staff meetings, line managers, text messaging, webinars, podcasts, staff handbooks, staff magazines and online modelling tools.
