What is the value of staff benefits?

Staff benefits can be a decisive factor in securing talent and long-term business performance.

Staff benefits can have a meaningful influence on a company’s competitive advantage. They can influence whether people accept a job offer and the ability of companies to retain employees. This makes staff benefits a decisive factor in securing talent and long-term business performance.

As active owners of investments, we engage with companies and encourage them to assess if employee wellbeing is sufficiently supported and make changes where necessary.

Employees are a significant driver of a company’s success, and we believe that optimising their reward and benefits packages makes good business sense.

What is active ownership?

Active ownership at Schroders means engaging with companies and issuers and our assets to encourage responsible behaviour. By holding management to account we aim to strengthen the long term value of our investments. 

Past performance is no guarantee of future performance. The value of investments and the income from them can go down as well as up, and you (or your clients) might not get back what you originally invested.
