New research from the O.C. Tanner Institute finds Total Rewards packages often fall flat if employees don’t believe organisations have their best interests at heart. Many HR professionals feel trapped in a cycle of expanding benefits and Total Rewards offerings that, ironically, don’t seem to satisfy employees’ needs.
What do employees actually see as useful when it comes to benefits, and how can HR take a more targeted approach to benefits and Total Rewards?
Join Dr. Cristen Dalessandro and Daniel Patterson, Senior Researchers at the O.C. Tanner Institute, as they explore a new framework for Total Rewards that speaks to employees’ needs to survive and thrive at work. You’ll learn:
- The challenges with traditional Total Rewards strategies
- The importance of meeting employees’ basic needs first so that they can begin thriving
- How to take a people-centered, purpose-driven approach to Total Rewards
