REBA Congress 2025

Health I Wellbeing I People Risk

Supporting workplace health and mitigating people risk

As changes to societal health increase the threat to workplace productivity and the costs of medical and protection benefits soar, we are witnessing a significant shift towards preventive health and wellbeing services. The focus now is to ensure these offerings effectively mitigate health-related people risk, ultimately fostering employee performance and business success.

The REBA Congress is here to help you design the best benefits to achieve success.

Be part of the 10th anniversary experience on Thursday 19th June 2025 and join fellow senior reward, benefits, HR and wellbeing leaders in taking a valuable step away from the day job to learn, share, network and source best-in-class benefits.

This year, for the first time we're excited to offer not one, but two, inspiring opening keynotes for you to choose from. Read on to find out more about each of the brilliant, thought-provoking sessions that will set the tone for an excellent day:

Opening keynote (A): Professor Hannah Fry

Mathematician, Broadcaster and Best-Selling Author

The 150-year life: how ever-increasing longevity will rewrite work, life and society

Known for her critically acclaimed BBC documentaries such as ‘The Secret Genius of Modern Life’ and long-running BBC Radio 6 series 'The Maths of Life with Lauren Laverne', Hannah will join us to explore what living to 150 means for the workplace, economy, and society.

With her intellectual insight and wit, she'll explain how epigenetics and cutting-edge health tech are redefining ageing, why social, environmental, and economic factors matter as much as genetics for longevity, and the profound impact increased lifespans will have on healthcare, pensions and human relationships.

Join Hannah for this compelling look at the future intersection of science, health, and work.

Opening keynote (B): Shruti Singh

Senior Economist, Skills and Employment Division of the OECD

Designing a people risk strategy to build workforce resilience and futureproof business success

As the leader of Ageing and Employment Policies at the OECD and mastermind behind landmark reports on career mobility, age diversity and disability policies, Shruti takes to the stage to explore why age-inclusive and multigenerational workplace strategies are critical for future success.

She will examine shifting workforce demographics and their impact on HR and business strategies, the macro-environmental effects of an ageing workforce, and the importance of dispelling stereotypes.

With actionable insights, Shruti will reveal how businesses can turn demographic change into a powerful driver of innovation and growth.
