As the deadline for the 2024/2025 reporting period approaches, we understand the pressure on employers to report on the gender pay gap accurately and on time. With the government’s proposals to expand this requirement to include ethnicity and disability, it is now more crucial than ever to ensure you are well-prepared.

In this webinar, our Isio experts explored the existing Gender Pay Gap reporting requirements and common pitfalls, the government’s new proposals, and practical steps employers can take to comply with and prepare for these obligations.

Deciding what benefits technology works for your organisation

The UK benefits technology landscape is undergoing substantial disruption as we draw towards the end of 2024. With several platform provider mergers and acquisitions this year, new digital offerings and those pushing hard on the use of various forms of artificial intelligence, choices in 2025 are going to look very different.

Isio Director, Alexis Parrish, joined a panel discussion with the Rewards & Employee Benefits Association exploring the practical strategies for assessing emerging benefits technologies which fit an organisation’s unique needs, while balancing costs and return on investment.

Watch the recording

Key issues explored: 

  • The current state of benefits technology: what is changing and why?
  • How to assess and choose the right tech for your organisation
    What types of personalisation and data are vital for today’s employees?
  • Leveraging benefits technology and data to support an organisation’s DEI goals and increasing gap reporting requirements
  • How important is artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, predictive analytics, and sentiment with a platform?
  • Is there still a need for the human connection to drive the right end to end experience? 
  • If benefits providers are incorporating AI, whether your platform can integrate it
