Every organisation needs to establish legally robust, transparent and fair remuneration and benefits practices.

A sound logic for reward, benefits and contract terms is essential given the ever-increasing focus on equal pay and other related equality issues such as rights for part-time workers and fixed-term employees. In addition, the design and purpose of bonus and commission schemes are a notorious trap for employers. Our team provides a comprehensive service on all aspects of executive and employee remuneration and benefits, including structuring, planning and implementing appropriate schemes at all levels of your business, involving the following areas:

• Job evaluation and grading systems
• Equal pay audits
• Employee benefit schemes
• 'Cafeteria' benefits schemes, including salary sacrifice
• Structuring and implementing incentive plans
• Bonus and commission schemes
• Taxation of benefits
