Personalising and Digitalising Benefits. A Guide for Multinational Organisations (EMEA Edition)

Personalising & Digitalising Benefits: EMEA Guide for Multinationals

Personalising & Digitalising Benefits: EMEA Guide for Multinationals

No matter the industry, no matter the technology, embracing innovation - lights the fire under growth, initiating advantages for employee and employer alike. As revealed in Aon's Employee Sentiment Study, EMEA organisations are witnessing a shift in employee expectations towards personalisation, flexibility, and clear communication. With technology making these features more accessible, now is the time to adapt.

The sticking point, however, is the willingness to take that jump in the first place, due to fears of high costs and a lack of resources. In a volatile economic landscape, the potential competitive advantage of embracing a new approach is unignorable.

In this guide, we address how EMEA organisations can adopt more flexibility and personalisation into their benefits and embrace human capital analytics and advanced technology to accommodate diverse employee preferences and bring together talent and rewards.

Key Findings:

  • Customisation of Benefits is Essential: Benefit customisation has evolved significantly, enabling employees to tailor their rewards to their work and life stage. However, multinational organisations face challenges in aligning these offerings with diverse local needs and employee expectations.
  • Local Relevance of Benefits Drives Engagement: For benefits to be truly valued, they must reflect the unique needs, cultural expectations and regulatory requirements of each location. A uniform benefits package risks missing critical local priorities and may reduce employee engagement.
  • Effective Communication and Employee Listening are Critical: Engagement hinges on segmented, relevant and clearly understood communications. Two-way listening — through data analysis and direct employee input — is vital for evolving benefits propositions.
  • Measurement and ROI Must be Prioritised: Tracking the impact of benefits — through cost savings, employee engagement, retention and alignment with business goals — is crucial for ongoing improvement and justification of investments.
  • Technology is the Key Enabler for Integration and Personalisation: Unified technology platforms allow for both individual employee adaptation and compliance with country-level regulations, reducing complexity and enhancing employee choice.
