Caring Homes Group, in partnership with the Personal Group, have launched 'Advantages' - a voluntary employee benefits package offering both on and off-line retail discounts to nearly 5,000 employees across the UK and Jersey.
Caring Homes Group is one of the most respected care home operators in the United Kingdom, providing quality accredited, award winning residential, nursing and specialist dementia care to elderly people, and award winning person centred services for people with learning disabilities and additional health and social care needs through Consensus - its Specialist Services division.
Martin Gash - Group Human Resources Director at Caring Homes Group said: "Operating in a competitive employee retention and attraction environment, Caring Homes Group wanted to offer their employees a flexible package of voluntary benefits, providing the widest range of selectable discounted high street products and services, and in good time for them to be able to take advantage in the run up to the holiday season".
Personal Group's comprehensive on-line and off-line platforms offer over 8,000 retail discounts, and the scheme was launched across Caring Homes Group's 132 homes, services and head office locations during November, by a combination of face to face group presentations, one-to-one meetings and written communications.
Steve Mason - Business Development Director at Personal Group said: "We are thrilled to be working with Caring Homes Group to provide their programme. It shows our continued commitment to the care sector where we are considered the provider of choice. We know Caring Homes Group has exceptionally high standards and we are pleased that we can meet them. In the first two weeks of roll out we have achieved 25% take-up which is great and a testament to the power of meeting with people face-to-face".
