🏆 We are delighted to share that we were recognised at the Reward Strategy event earlier this week, with the award for Best Response to the Cost of Living Crisis! This is in recognition for the fantastic work of introducing #pension salary sacrifice where we made pensions more affordable by reducing National Insurance contributions. 💰 We didn’t stop there—we reinvested the employer National Insurance savings to provide a health cash plan, ensuring that our employees can still access essential #healthcare. 🩺 💙 This approach not only reduces pension costs for our employees but also provides them with a healthcare pot to support their #wellbeing. We were also Highly Commended as Best Employer and recognised for best practice by industry experts. 👏 A massive thank you to everyone involved! #Awards #Rewards #Housing Carina Monnelly-Owen Assoc CIPD Ian Hodson MScChMCIPPdip
