Sickness absence is climbing to record levels, according to the CIPD’s Health and Wellbeing at Work 2025 research. Employees are experiencing long waiting times to access essential treatment, while organisations face rising costs, lost productivity, and mounting pressure on already stretched benefits budgets. Every delay in care is a direct hit to workforce health, resilience, and retention.
At the same time, the rapid growth of digital healthcare is reshaping employee expectations. Virtual GPs, wellbeing apps and online platforms promise faster access but too often they sit in isolation, failing to reach the employees who need them most.
For reward and benefits leaders, the question is urgent: how do you create a seamless, equitable healthcare journey that cuts through barriers, harmonises provision, and delivers real organisational impact?
This webinar, with strategic partners Simplyhealth, revealed how forward-thinking employers are achieving exactly that.
Chaired by Jo Gallacher, content director at REBA, the speakers included:
- Jo French, reward manager at Card Factory
- Helen McGowan, group benefits manager at Travis Perkins
- Marc Singh-Jones, head of commercial product and partnerships at Simplyhealth.
REBA webinars are complimentary for everyone working within rewards and benefits, HR, and wellbeing.
Thank you to our strategic partner Simplyhealth for supporting this REBA webinar
