Data intelligence is changing the reward and benefits balance
Getting the balance right is going to be a top challenge for reward and benefits professionals during 2025.
Whether your remit is Europewide, or UK-based, you’ll be juggling the added costs of new legislation, from pay transparency to new employments rights, against a still-tight labour market. Add in rising national minimum wage and employer’s National Insurance increases (in the UK), and pressure is now on to think differently about focussing on the benefits that give the biggest bang for buck.
In this webinar we will explore ways in which digital tools, such as artificial intelligence, are already helping employers to crunch vast amounts of data to surface vital decision-influencing insights. Ensuring the decisions and actions benefits teams take to maximise investment in benefits is vital, but without seeing the story in the numbers the job is almost impossible. This assistance also gives time back to focus on the human in HR, an increasingly important factor in the challenging times of the last number of years.
The panel will also discuss how they identify the HR, reward and benefits outcomes, and which strategies are starting to emerge as a result.
Key issues to be explored
• How emerging data intelligence is changing: Benefits and reward offerings, HR outcomes, Team workloads and processes
• Ways in which intelligence insight will be vital to manage the cost impact of incoming legislation and Budget announcements
• Balancing spend and proving return on investment: how to surface what you need to know
• What we mean by artificial intelligence: untangling your LLMs from your Gen-AI
