Edexcel has revamped its voluntary benefits scheme for its employees and switched providers from You at Work to Logbuy.

The qualifications awarding body launched the new scheme in December, to allow its staff who number more than 1,200 access to discounts from more than 150 retailers in time for Christmas.

Employees obtain the discounts via a company branded website and printed directory. Staff have also been provided with a discount card, which can be used in selected stores.

Sandra Garland, human resources adviser for Edexcel, said: "Our staff are so important to us, and this programme delivers genuine benefits and savings. It needed to offer high value and be implemented quickly, as well as offering all our staff access to discounts at a wide range of leading brands and local retailers."
