Eurosport France
Implementing and launching a benefits and total rewards platform is an exciting but challenging undertaking for any company. How do you ensure the launch goes smoothly? How do you make your employees aware of the platform and make sure they make full use of all the functions? Eurosport France is a perfect example of a perfect launch.
Eurosport France had more than 30 high-quality employee benefits, but there was very little consistency with how benefits were being communicated, and most employees were unaware of what they had access to. When Caroline Roque, Benefits & Compensation Manager, received a presentation of Benify’s employee benefits platform at the HR Tech fair in 2016, she was impressed with what she saw and realised immediately that this was the solution she was looking for.
– “I had a look at the Benify platform, and I said to myself, wow, we need to get this!”
Once Caroline had the support from the rest of the organisation, it was time to evaluate the current situation and determine how the new benefits platform would be designed. Dedicated employees from Eurosport France collaborated closely with Benify’s experts to gain a comprehensive understanding of the project. On the launch day, all 650 employees received an email with their personal log in details. To create extra enthusiasm, HR also put information sheets on the employees’ desks, presented a demo of the platform and arranged a quiz where the answers could only be found in the platform.
