Flexible Working Named Most Valued Benefit

In terms of business related perks company pension plans were favoured by 15% of respondents, making them the third most popular benefit. Other benefits to gain a mention included social / humanitarian work with 7%, exposure to advanced networking / social activities with 6% and paid training and developments with 6%.

The Head of Human Resources Services at PricewaterhouseCoopers, Michael Rendell, said that “With companies mindful of taking on new employees, existing staff have been expected to do more with less. Our survey indicates that employees may be feeling the pressure, with large numbers hoping for a better work-life balance in the future, and half saying they would rather work for themselves. Companies that can adapt to the UK\’s growing flexible-working culture will be best placed to sustain morale and retain top talent when the job market becomes more buoyant\”
