Total Reward Communication Ideas

Some of the ways we measure employee perceptions are through: § Surveys § Focus groups § Perception Index™ : We assess perceptions of Total Rewards and related communication. When combined with Benefit Index results, you will learn the “Value Gap” between what you spend and the delivered value, as perceived by employees. Aon Hewitt | Consulting | Consumer Experience Proprietary & Confidential | Premier TRS Discussion 19
Communicating Total Rewards A personalized Total Rewards solution can: § Help employees recognize the full array of rewards you provide § Customize information for specific employee groups or locations § Target specialized compensation and benefits information for executives or other unique audiences 90% of employees surveyed said our personalized Total Rewards statements were “important” or “the most important” communication they receive from their employer.
