Benefit Consulting and Scheme Design

Our experienced and dedicated consultants have designed award winning benefit schemes for over 200 clients with between 250 – 80,000+ employees.

Consultation is a two way process which continues throughout the formulation of our benefit solutions and allows our benefit experts to understand what our clients require at each point of the scheme development.

The schemes we design are built on a number of ‘best practice’ building blocks – tried and tested ways of achieving certain results that provide the basis on which we create our unique and bespoke services.

Our consultants continually seek to improve the ‘best practice’ building blocks and the unique schemes designed for clients, through reviewing the success and lessons learnt at the end of each project, leaving them in a unique position to build each client a scheme that will certainly meet but often exceed their expectations.

Scheme designs include;

• The current and new benefits that will be included in the scheme
• How these benefits promote the scheme and add value to the organisations offering and employee’s lifestyle
• Which employees will be eligible for which benefits
• How the benefits and the scheme as a whole promote the HR objectives behind the implementation
• Scheme rules and policies
• Key Dates
• Communication and Marketing of the Scheme
• Administration requirements and responsibilities

The Scheme Design Process

In looking to design and implement a benefit scheme which is a perfect ‘fit’ for our clients the first stage is to perform a review of current and potential new benefits. We then create a scheme design and ‘rules’ that encapsulate what our clients are seeking to achieve.

As part of the scheme design we gather data from our client’s workforce in order to ensure we make recommendations that will match the needs of their employees. Once the benefit mix has been agreed Benefex will create and document the scheme and set up contracts with providers. The scheme design will also include the communication techniques we will use to inform employees of your benefit strategy.

Detailed assessments will be made of operational readiness, integration, internal systems, administration, processes and many other key details which will need to be documented to guarantee that when the scheme is launched it will provide a positive employee experience, with minimal administration and maximum positive impact.
