Zest’s Employee Benefit Report

As employers continue to face cost-of-living pressures, it’s clear that salaries alone are no longer enough to keep someone in their role.

With 42% of UK employees saying that a good benefits package is the most important thing they look for in employment, our latest report has found that employers are continuing to push for a positive change. But there’s still work to be done!

There remains a disconnect between what it is that employers are offering and what it is that employees want. A failure to match demand for personalisation and improved communications around benefits packages still provides businesses across the country with a dilemma.

To dive deeper into this, we’ve commissioned a survey of 500 HR decision makers and 2,000 UK employees to better understand how the employee benefits landscape has evolved and whether employee demands are shifting.

Key findings include:

• 56% of employees say they would leave their job if another company offered them a better benefits package
• Seven in ten (69%) employers say that benefits packages are one of the very first things candidates ask about
• 41% of employees still believe that their current benefits package is inadequate
