("Personal Group" or the "Group")
Contract Win with Nottingham City Transport
Personal Group, a leading provider of employee benefits, employee related insurance products and financial services in the UK, is pleased to announce that it has been appointed to provide a money saving benefits programme to the 1,117 employees of Nottingham City Transport ("NCT") the UK's Large Bus Operator of the Year 2013.
Personal Group, now in its 30th year of business, is the provider of choice for the passenger transport industry, and it was this specialist knowledge that attracted NCT to Personal Group.
NCT carry the most satisfied bus customers in the country, according to an independent Passenger Focus survey, and they wanted this to apply to their employees too. Their programme is called "Link to your benefits" and uses Personal Group's portal, My Advantage Plus. The aim of this new portal is to help people save money on the essentials in life as well as providing occasional treats.
The portal complements Personal Group's technologically enabled approach to benefits and it is presented to staff during one-to-one meetings. Personal Group's face-to-face approach is supported by the engaging iPad presentation which explains the benefits and aids staff understanding of what has been put in place for them. Employees will also be supplied with a comprehensive benefits book to reinforce their presentation.
Mick Leafe, Nottingham City Transport HR Director: "My Advantage Plus struck us as an effective way of improving awareness and use of the benefits programme. Remembering to use your benefits programme is not an instinctive thing to do, so this new portal appealed to us as it's easy to use and will improve awareness. The programme is fully branded so it identifies us and it demonstrates our continued appreciation of our employees as they can see what we have put in place for them. We are a benevolent employer who looks after their staff as we value them. We've been working with Personal Group for 10 years so we see this as the next step."
Paul Bresnihan, Personal Group Director and passenger transport expert said: "Our latest offering is ideal for local bus operators. It is simple, easy to use and easy to save money on the things people need to save money on. I feel My Advantage Plus is an ideal fit for the requirements of the industry and its employees."
