What are the global trends in employee benefits?
· The Belgian social security system covers a
large proportion of the population, and plays a significant role in the
country’s employee benefits market. However, the recent debt crisis in European
Union (EU) member states had an adverse impact on the employee benefits market.
The Japanese social security system is
designed to assure a minimum standard of living to its citizens, as well as
protection from social and economic risks. It consists of the following
components: a public pension system, health services, and personal social
services for the elderly and the disabled, family policy to support working
women, employment of senior workers, and public assistance.
Most private benefit plans in the UK are
voluntary in nature (excluding work injury, maternity benefit and redundancy
pay). Many companies in the country provide supplement benefits to their
employees, either in the form of contracted-in or contracted-out of the State’s
Additional Retirement Pension (S2P). Most private benefits are defined
contribution (DC) plans, as they indicate the cost associated with it in advance.
The Saudi Arabian private sector is
undergoing numerous changes; with the implementation of the Nitaqat system, for
example, the government is promoting the employment of Saudi nationals in the
private sector. Even after these efforts, young Saudi jobseekers are still
reluctant to apply for private jobs due to their perception that government
agencies offer better pay benefits and job security. To attract more qualified
Saudi nationals, private companies in the country are offering numerous fringe
benefits. The most commonly offered fringe benefits are housing allowance,
travelling allowance, loan facility, and training and development programs.
