HR leaders often question whether their current pay strategies are supporting their business need to attract and retain talent, questions such as: “Pay transparency – what’s all the fuss?  Is our compensation offering in line with market standards?

• What HR must know!!!

Workplace loneliness is a hidden force impacting 72% of global workers. Research from Gallup, Cigna, and Deloitte have found that socially disconnected employees are 7x more likely to be disengaged, miss work 5x as often, and quit 3x as much. Learning how to build meaningful connection at work has become paramount in an age of growing isolation and loneliness.

In this session, we’ll explore how organizations can strengthen parental benefits and improve communication to foster employee well-being and reduce turnover. My main takeaways for the audience are:

(1)Understand how their benefits compare to national standards, local norms, and recent trends.
(2) Leave with actionable ways to improve communication (based on what they already have) with expecting and new parents.
(3) Ensure compliance with key legislation to support parents.
