Explore
What we do.
Consult
Clear advice for your business.
Please tell us about your business. We are experts at what we do and hope to become experts about what’s important to you and your employees. Today’s workforce has an array of different priorities, but one thing rings true across the board: wages on their own aren’t enough anymore. As independent advisers, we can help you select the benefits that can deliver a positive impact across every facet of your workforce’s wellbeing.
Ongoing Support
Always there to help.
Once you’ve chosen your benefits, it’s important for you to know you have help at hand. This is true when it comes to not only the implementation, but also the ongoing maintenance, governance and oversight of those benefits. At HWWA Consulting, we pride ourselves on being available for our clients and their employees whenever we’re needed. Think of us as an extension of your business, your benefits management department.
Educate
Building knowledge and value.
Employee wellbeing has become increasingly important in the fast-paced environment we all now live in. HWWA Consulting believes that workforce education is a key enabler for wellbeing, both as a benefit in its’ own right but also to ensure the benefits you offer are understood and appreciated. In the highly regulated benefit environment, it’s difficult for employers to know what they can and can’t say. HWWA Consulting can help you overcome those communication challenges and help your people learn how to improve their financial and broader wellbeing.
How we help.
Tell us how we can help you.
Life happens to your employees. They might fall on hard times. They might get sick. They may not have been taught how to be good with money and at some point in time they will want to retire.
There are benefits available which you can implement that are solutions to problems your employees might or will face. There are benefits that are more preventative in nature and there are obviously benefits more focussed on reward for a job well done. Our Services can meet your people-focussed objectives when it comes to benefit provision.
There are certain aspects of providing benefits and rewards that need to take into consideration legislation. Your duties as an employer under the automatic-enrolment pension legislation is a prime example.
Age discrimination legislation is another topic that crops up when discussing benefits with clients. Whilst we can’t offer a legal opinion, we are able to point out areas that might catch you out and tell you where you may need to seek advice.
Most businesses spend money to make money. To give yourself the best chance of a return on investment, your benefits should be value for money for the business in the context of what’s available in any given market.
In addition, the benefits need to be used, understood and appreciated by your workforce. You may be thinking about introducing new benefits or improving what you already have. Whatever your needs are, talk to us.
By simply running a business and by employing human beings, you are creating risk. In addition to the aforementioned legal and financial risks associated with benefit provision, the risk of losing customers due to a disengaged or disgruntled employee can be significant. How happy someone is with their career can certainly be impacted, in part, by the benefits they receive and how well the actual relevance and purpose of each benefit is communicated.
In addition to ‘career’ wellbeing, there are similarly connected pillars of wellbeing in terms of financial, physical, mental, social and relationship health to be considered. We consider every aspect of employee wellbeing with our clients.
Our process.
We know that selecting, managing and evolving your employee benefits can be complicated. Our specialist consultants can help you to make robust decisions when selecting benefits, ensure those benefits run smoothly and are understood and appreciated by your workforce. HWWA Consulting enables businesses and employees to prosper.
Listening
Regardless of the benefit we are talking about, our process starts with us asking you questions and listening to what you’ve got to say. The answers might come from you, from data and from your employees. We need to better understand your pains and uncover potential gains.
Diagnosis
By combining insights about your business with our acumen and knowledge of the benefits and wellbeing market, we identify solutions that can relieve your pains and improve the status quo. You’ll get clear advice on what we believe you should do and why, with total transparency when it comes to what we charge for carrying out our recommendations.
Implementation
We then bring into effect the identified solutions, with the necessary communication support to ensure your workforce is educated about the positive steps you are taking and changes you are making. By planning and carrying out implementation effectively, we can minimise the impact on your organisation.
Maintenance
Inevitably things happen that can alter the status quo; a legislation change, a product change, a change to your business and you and your employees will have questions that your benefit provider cannot answer. We’re on hand as an expert friend to ensure the necessary support and analysis is available when you need and want it.
