Health benefits for tomorrow's workforce: preparing for employer-led provision under reduced state support 

Future Forum Workshop

This invitation-only workshop is exclusively designed for senior reward and benefit professionals. Partnered with WTW.

 

Key Discussion Points:

  • The shifting health burden: What do policy changes, socio-economic trends and reduced state funding mean for employers? How can reward and benefits leaders prepare for the rising costs and responsibilities of workforce health?  
  • The role of technology: how can AI and digital platforms be used to integrate wellbeing, occupational health and insured benefits into seamless strategies that improve employee health and outcomes? 
  • Global and UK insights: What can we learn from international benefits trends, early findings from WTW’s absence management data and emerging models of employer-led healthcare?  

Amid growing pressures on public healthcare services, widening gaps in long-term incapacity support and new statutory sick pay rules, we're seeing a shifting burden of health from the state to the workplace. Rising employee expectations, and the need to mitigate increasing costs and health risks mean reward and benefits leaders must redesign wellbeing programmes and private healthcare provision that's relevant for and able to meet future workforce needs.  

This strategic workshop will delve deeper into the issues, with exclusive insights from WTW’s absence management survey findings. Attendees will explore macroeconomic and socio-political trends across the UK and Europe and provide senior reward and benefits leaders with a space to share challenges, debate strategies and explore innovative approaches with peers.
