The Coca-Cola Company

The Coca-Cola Company and professional services network Deloitte have been shortlisted for Best use of benefits technology at the Employee Benefits Awards 2024.

This award, which is sponsored by Vivup, was created to recognise how an employer has best utilised and adapted technology to suit its benefits package, its business aims and the needs of its employees. The judges looked at how technology had been customised to suit an organisation and its workforce, rather than its cost and scale.

The full category shortlist is:

  • Cadent
  • Ciena
  • Deloitte
  • Prezzo
  • The Coca-Cola Company

Last year’s ceremony saw South Pole scoop the accolade due to its innovative use of an emerging technology as seen in its design and implementation of tailored global benefits package. It utilised a neurotech people analytics platform that uses short affirmations to measure a respondent’s reaction time, capturing their true feelings and removing unconscious bias. It was also made to be suitable for neurodiverse individuals and those with visual impairments.

A South Pole spokesperson said: “We are a fairly small [organisation], but in the past year have grown about 50%. To be recognised for the work we are doing is amazing and it’s made such an impact. In our industry, climate change, employees are so purpose driven and have more choice [of employer] to go to, so we recognised that we needed to grow our benefits offering. The fact that it has paid off with this award is amazing.”

The Employee Benefits Awards, now in its 22nd year, recognises those driving excellence through their reward and benefits strategies. The daytime event, which will be held at the Honourable Artillery Company, London on Friday 14 June, will include a drinks reception, three-course meal, entertainment and the chance to network with industry professionals.
