Rushmoor Borough Council
Nicola Orchard from Rushmoor Borough council said: “In the current economic climate we simply could not justify increasing the cost of our PMI* plan each year, but we did not want our staff to lose their benefit, so wanted to see if there was a more cost effective solution available. The National Friendly plan provided the ideal answer as we have been able to set the premium level and this is never increased unless we decide we want to invest more to provide our employees with more cover. It has meant we can offer a truly sustainable benefit for our staff.”
SMEG
Personnel manager Janet Rothwell at SMEG comments: “We were determined to retain health cover for our employees but had to find something that was more cost effective. The Healthcare Deposit Account offers a range of benefits that meet the aims of the HR team and within the budgets set by the finance manager.”
