The War for Talent

The War for Talent
People who feel good about where they
work are people who will go the extra mile
in what they do - the ability to tap into that
discretionary effort makes the difference
between companies who succeed and the rest.
Today approximately 80% of a company’s value is driven by assets that
are not on the balance sheet, most often the quality of the workforce.
Deloitte Touche
The Challenge
To attract the best and keep them whilst
operating within the constraints of a budget.
Many people managers have told us that their companies cannot afford to get involved
in salary wars for talent and need to find other more creative ways of differentiating
themselves and attracting and keeping the best.
The Solution
The Solution
Perkz adds high tangible value to your
employment package at low cost. It is a creative
solution to help you attract, retain and motivate
your people and succeed in the ‘War for Talent’.
A study by Deloitte & Touche showed that it costs 100-200% of an employee’s
base salary to replace an average employee, what about the best employees?
