Our employee benefits brokerage will help you create a sustainable approach by enabling you to reduce your risk profile. By redesigning your benefits solutions to consider all four states of employee well-being.

Most employers spend a large proportion of their budget on rising claims for chronic diseases, lifestyle-related illness and mental health issues. Benefits designed to drive behaviour change, such as health benefits that motivate and engage employees to make healthy choices; or mental health benefits that boost resilience and reduce stress and anxiety helps tackle this.

As well as reducing your risk profile and negotiating competitive deals with insurers, our preventative employee benefits broking helps employees feel more supported.

Employee benefits broker analytics

An integral part of our market-leading approach to employee benefits broking is the use of data, technology and analytics. We use this to help you:

  • Get a better understanding of your employee profile
  • Identify savings opportunities based on current cost and cost drivers
  • Anticipate and measure risk and ROI on benefit programmes

While our wider employee benefits consulting services can help you identify targeted interventions that impact employee health and productivity.

We also provide data, analytics and insights solutions to help you make data-driven decisions to optimise spend and engagement. This can then be utilised to refresh plan provisions and during contract renewals to challenge underwriting and actuarial assumptions, to provide truth in numbers.

We can also share analytics on what your industry peers are doing, to ensure what you’re offering is fair and competitive. Four questions to consider annually are:

  • Getting the best value deal

    Whether you are getting the best deal and fair value?
  • Comparable benefits

    Whether your benefits are comparable to industry practice and against peers?
  • Attractive risk

    Whether you are considered an ‘attractive risk’?
  • Valued benefits

    Which benefits are valued and by which segment of your employees?
