This report aims to bring into succinct focus the key challenges facing businesses today, alongside the vital areas where HR teams will increase or decrease their attention during 2021. We cut through the enormity of the challenge by breaking down, in data, practical lists and advice, the actions against which HR can check thinking and rework or expand current plans.

Our report demonstrates just how much care so many employers do put into the long-term financial wellbeing of their employees, even though very few employees truly engage in their pensions until closer to their retirement. While some organisations do this because it is the right thing to do, for many, achieving good retirement savings outcomes for employees is not primarily about being good to staff. It is about ensuring good future business outcomes: with employees who want to retire being able to at their chosen age.

The Covid-19 crisis of 2020 concertinaed a decade worth of ongoing workplace trends into just a few weeks. Those running employee wellbeing strategies found their work front and centre to keep workforces coping month after month during the most extreme collective change since the two world wars. Growing trends picked up by REBA's annual Employee Wellbeing Research, now in its fifth year, have accelerated rapidly. Already, employers were concerned at how hard organisational change was hitting employee wellbeing. This research, conducted before the crisis, found that the share of employers citing organisational change as a risk to wellbeing increased 235% between 2019 and 2020. Linked to this, resilience/mental health workshops were the services set to see biggest growth within wellbeing strategies.
