Europe's largest reward and benefits event, Employee Benefits Live, will take place on 29-30 September at the Business Design Centre, Islington, London.

The event, which includes both a conference and an extensive exhibition, has been running for 11 years and last year attracted more than 1,700 visitors.

The highly-acclaimed, top-level conference programme is completely free to attend. The event will see leading employers present their own case studies on reward, benefits and pensions strategies, and draws on the experience and contacts of the editorial team of Employee Benefits magazine.

“We believe that offering such a high-quality conference totally for free is unique, which is particularly appealing in the current climate,” said Phil Hayne, publisher of Employee Benefits.

The 2009 conference will include streams dedicated to flexible benefits, total reward, reward in the public sector, and international benefits strategy.

There will also be sessions to cater for all needs – whether visitors are new to benefits, or are highly experienced specialists – which will cover topics ranging from healthcare and pensions to motivation and legal issues. The Employee Benefits Research 2009, published in May, revealed 33% of employers are reviewing benefits and providers this year.

Employee Benefits Live is the perfect opportunity to speak to over 100 suppliers under one roof, making it a highly-effective day or two out of the office. A full list of confirmed exhibitors can be found at www.employeebenefitslive.co.uk including a number of new suppliers to this year’s event, such as Cycle Solutions, Advo Group and Transport for London.
