Top Editor's message EMPLOYEE BENEFITS For the past few years, we have seen employers seek to make cost savings by reducing their reward budget - either through making redundancies, freezing pay or reducing spend on pay and benefits generally. However, as our research demonstrates, employers have adopted a number of strategies to ensure they are making the most of their pay and benefits spend and have kept employees engaged in the process. With the first pensions auto-enrolment staging date just around the corner, now is a good time for smaller employers to start thinking about how it will affect their organisations. The Personnel Today webinar on auto-enrolment includes useful information on what HR professionals should be doing now to prepare for their staging date, as well as examples of how other organisations are preparing.
