Recruiting difficulty has continued to increase over the last five years and competition for talent is high.  To attract and retain top talent, organizations must leverage their benefits package.  Annually, the Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM) conducts is survey of U.S. employers to gather information on employee benefit programs.  The findings report, which we will cover in this session, examines the prevalence of benefits over the past five years to track trends.  Join us to learn more about what other employers are implementing within their benefits strategy to remain competitive in the current talent marketplace.

Presentation Objectives:

• Explore benefits benchmarking data for health, leave, retirement, work-life, financial, career, travel and relocation benefits
• Compare your benefits strategy with benchmark data in order to understand how you compare to your peers
• Gain insight into which benefits are trending up and which benefits are trending down
