The Parchment Housing Group, a Hampshire-based not-for-profit social housing and domestic care organisation, has introduced an online voluntary benefits scheme to keep hold of its skilled builders and caregivers.

Jacqui Bryden, HR manager at Parchment Housing, said the Motivano scheme, called Everybody Benefits, is a non-monetary method of motivation in competitive labour markets. The housing group employs about 360 staff.

The package includes online total reward statements and an employer-paid shopping discount card that cost the housing group about £2,000. It also offers a range of high street discount offers.
