Traditionally, rewards programs have been restricted to financial compensation provided to employees in return for their services. However, this is changing due to the evolving preferences and needs of today’s diverse workforce.

Today, people are not just looking for a well-paid job but also for purpose, relationships, flexibility, fairness and a personalized experience – along with career and learning opportunities. Because of this, to attract and retain top talent, organizations must re-evaluate their rewards strategies to ensure they reflect diverse expectations and promote equity and transparency.
