Top 3 non-financial benefits to reward your employees

How can businesses retain their employees if they can’t offer a pay increase?

We asked Australian employees what other benefits would encourage them to stay with an organisation if more money was not an option.

Extra Annual Leave

Extra annual leave appealed to nearly a third of Australian employees (30%). In addition to extra annual leave, 10% of Australians would like an extra day off for their birthday each year and 25% would like a monthly RDO.

Flexible Working Arrangements

Flexible working arrangements is one of the top non-financial benefits (28%) that appeals to Australians. Reduced working hours also appeal to almost a third (27%) of workers.

Company Car

17% of Australians would value the option of a company car as a non-financial benefit.
