In today's highly competitive job market, employers are facing the challenge of attracting and retaining top talent. Offering a competitive salary is no longer enough. Employers must take a holistic approach and provide a comprehensive package that meets the individual needs of each employee. This is where the concept of Total Rewards comes into play.

We're a leading HR consulting and outsourcing firm, which means we field a lot of questions from business leaders about human resources. Perhaps the most common question is: how can I get more from my HR team?

The 2020s have been an unpredictable decade, to say the least. Stressful events have forced many people to reevaluate their careers, their work-life balance, and their relationships with employers.

We’ve talked before about how it’s sometimes hard to communicate Total Rewards to employees, especially younger workers. Employees don’t always see beyond their paycheck, and employers struggle to show the value of less tangible benefits.

Leaders spend a lot of time worrying about making their salary structure competitive, and with good reason. Compensation is key to employee retention. If the guys in the opposite building are offering a 20% pay bump, then your employees are going to feel sorely tempted to cross the street.

Keeping hold of your best staff has always been a challenge. Experienced managers have a whole toolkit of techniques they use to identify retention risks and minimize staff turnover rates. But those techniques often involve face-to-face contact with the team. What happens when you’re trying to manage a group of remote workers?
