Choices Benefits Plan - we are unique in providing both a core flexible benefits scheme and a voluntary benefits programme (research suggests that most companies focus on developing just one). Our benefits programme is branded Choices:
- Choices Annual benefits is our flexible benefits plan and offers a number of benefits such as Childcare Vouchers, Private Medical Insurance, Home Computing Initiative and Critical Illness cover to name a few. Payments are taken directly from your salary on a period basis.
- Choices Anytime benefits supports our core flex scheme, the offers enclosed can be used at anytime, hence the name, and you contact the provider directly, by accessing web-sites, using vouchers, dedicated phone numbers and so forth. A full booklet is issued in May of each year with a supplement booklet in October.
- Ireland Benefits Plan is our offer for graduates recruited initially in Ireland. This scheme offers great benefits including Voluntary Health Insurance (VHI) contributions, Cycle to Work scheme, Health Screening and an approved profit share scheme.
