Employee benefits provider Vivup and group protection and investment provider Canada Life UK have been shortlisted in the Best supplier to work for category at the Employee Benefits Awards 2024.
This award was created to recognise an organisation that uses its benefits package to position itself as an attractive employer beyond offering its own products and services to its workforce. It is only open to internal HR teams of employee benefits providers, suppliers, advisers and consultants.
The full category shortlist is:
- BHN (Blackhawk Network)
- Bupa UK
- Canada Life UK
- Health Assured
- HFMC Wealth
- Virgin Incentives
- Vivup
In 2023, Vivup (pictured above) won the award due to its internal transparency of salary bandings, a fair and transparent reward structure, clear and visible progression pathways, continuous learning and development for all staff, and an organisation share bonus pot, from which all employees benefit. It also took steps to support staff during the cost-of-living crisis, including an additional pay increase in 2022 and facilitating early access to the bonus pot if needed.
A Vivup spokesperson said: “All our staff work incredibly hard and if it wasn’t for them we wouldn’t be the business we are. We genuinely listen to our team, do what they need and invest in them. Over the past four years there have been many internal promotions and we’ve put people through training programmes. Every single thing we offer to our customers is offered to our staff; it’s about the here and now and also about the future.”
The Employee Benefits Awards, now in its 22nd year, recognise 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.
