Howden Employee Benefits UK

We are thrilled to launch our annual benefits design research in collaboration with our friends at Reward & Employee Benefits Association (REBA). This year, it's all about data! We explored its powerful role in decision-making, programme governance, and securing that all-important stakeholder buy-in. Our top insights include: - 1 in 3 employers have had benefits changes rejected due to insufficient data - Rising costs mean stricter approval processes, particularly for pension projects, yet critical data gaps remain - 51% find external benchmarking data hard to access Our research shows that strong data is the foundation for smarter decisions and better outcomes. By addressing these challenges, you can pave the way for more effective and impactful benefits programmes. Don’t miss out – download the report today and start leveraging data to create positive change in your organisation! https://hubs.li/Q03fwSjD0 #ResearchLaunch #REBA #HR #DataDriven #BenefitsManagement
