background

In today’s evolving workplace, the traditional benefits playbook is failing to engage, retain, and truly support modern employees. From Gen Z’s expectations of mental health support and financial wellness, to gig workers and startup employees seeking flexible, non-traditional perks, employers are finding that the "standard" benefits — insurance, PF, gym memberships no longer resonate as they once did.

This RoundTable explores the critical benefits of mismatches from the growing disconnect between what employers offer and what employees need. The discussion aims to uncover why this gap exists, what employees value today (but aren't getting), and how companies can reimagine their benefits stack to remain competitive, inclusive, and meaningful.

Key Discussion Points:

1. Changing employee expectations across demographics

2. Role of personalisation and choice in benefits design

3. Impact of unused or underutilised benefits on engagement and ROI

4. Strategies for aligning benefit offerings with evolving workforce needs

Whether you're an HR leader, benefits provider, or founder shaping your people strategy, this is a chance to challenge assumptions and future-proof your benefits portfolio.
