Compiled from independent research with 251 top companies including; Channel 4, David Austen Roses, Ericsson, Grosvenor, Hotel Chocolat, Ofcom, SAP and Teneo, this year’s findings highlight a pivotal shift in responsibility for employee health and wellbeing. With NHS infrastructure under strain, employers must step deeper into this role. The report outlines the steps to facilitate this – from using data to align health interventions with business goals, to empowering employees to manage their health.
The full report will give you benchmarking data, DEI agenda changes, tax implications, evolving EVPs and a blueprint of the ‘why’ and the ‘how’ for future employee wellbeing success.
The REBA Employee Wellbeing Survey 2024, together with AXA Health, was conducted as an online quantitative survey between November 2023 and January 2024 among REBA’s membership community and wider database of HR professionals. It achieved participation from 251 predominantly medium to large organisations, representing an estimated two million employees. This approach ensured a broad and diverse set of data, reflecting a cross-section of employer sizes and industry sectors in the UK.
REBA’s robust, evidence-based methodology is strategically aimed at uncovering clear, actionable future trends and decision-making patterns among employers. This systematic approach delivers reliable, data-driven insights, helping to guide better decisions in
employee reward and benefits practices.

I’m Debi and I co-founded REBA in 2015, where I am a director. I enjoy sharing insights, data and information about employee benefits and pay via articles, research, guides and videos because I believe it helps so many employees receive better reward packages than they would if REBA didn’t distribute this knowledge. REBA has a great community and it makes my work fun to talk to the wide variety of people working in reward and benefits through our events, both large and small.
