Jelf has released two whitepapers on benefits technology to help employers have a more consolidated approach to employee benefits.
The first paper, International Benefits Management - managing your global benefits strategy is aimed at UK employers who are 2-3 years into an international expansion plan.
The whitepaper helps them streamline processes online for overseas operations and give details of benefits rationalisation, governance and improving engagement with total reward tatements.s
The second whitepaper, How to choose a flexible benefits provider, looks at key employer considerations when reviewing and choosing a flexible benefits provider.
Currently 80% of employers with over 100 employees offer some form of flexible benefits scheme, up from 11% a decade ago, meaning delivering it in a personalised way is now more emphasised than whether or not to offer it.
Both white papers are available here.
Richard McKinley-Price, head of benefits management at Jelf Employee Benefits said: "There is a plethora of employee benefits and flex platforms on the market at the moment, so it's vital for employers to really take time to consider what expectations and requirements they have for their organisation both now and in the future.
"Our experience shows that one of the most critical assets is the ability to access information in real time across multiple locations in order to make immediate decisions.
"In addition, the ability to add extra functionality as the needs of the company evolve rather than repeatedly switch platforms is also a priority.
"Our whitepapers are aimed at being food for thought for all parties involved in reviewing or selecting a benefits platform for their organisation."
