Payroll costs typically amount to over 70% of total organisation spend
With such a large portion of a business’s annual spend attributed to their people, maximising the effectiveness of this investment can have an incredible impact on the productivity and success of your organisation. Compensation Planning enables you to analyse your pay structures and compare your rewards against the market to make sure that you’re offering the right packages for employees and your business.
Replacing a single member of your team can cost over £25k
Losing good people can really hinder the progress of a business. When you consider the drain on time, productivity and an up-to-28-week search for a suitable replacement, it’s easy to see why organisations who struggle with retention often struggle to grow. Compensation Planning gives you vital salary comparison insights that enable you to deliver competitive reward packages that keep employees happy.
