Without the use of HR & Compliance Centre, it would have cost us a lot of money in terms of needing to source legal assistance to ensure that the policies are legally binding and fully up to date.

Policy of the week

Two-thirds of respondents to our Employee benefits research 2025 offer long-service awards. Our research in this area always produces detailed findings of the frequency and value of this type of recognition, with typical long-service awards ranging from £100 after five years' service to £500 after 25 years. Our model Long-service awards policy provides a framework for you to communicate employees' entitlement to long-service awards.
