Remuneration & Reward

Non-Financial Reward

Employee Value Proposition (EVP)

The focus on talent has gained momentum over the past decade, reflecting the critical role that attracting, motivating and retaining talented people has on business success. Most organisations offer a wide array of benefit and work-life programs to attract and retain employees. This is the Employee Value Proposition (EVP) – the collection of attributes that motivate targeted candidates to join a company and existing employees to stay.

It has become imperative to introduce effective staff attraction and retention tactics that are driven by a defined and specific attraction and retention strategy.

Retention strategy and policies should align directly with the organisation’s overall strategic direction and remuneration policy.
