employee welfare is an important part of the enterprise salary and welfare system, which directly affects the quality of life of employees and their satisfaction with employers.

Recently, Beijing Foreign Enterprise Human Resources Service Co., Ltd. (FESCO) carried out the "Most Popular Welfare Survey", which involved 32 welfare contents in six categories, including social welfare, medical security welfare, subsidized welfare, investment and savings welfare, employee life welfare and employee career development welfare, and selected the top ten most popular welfare for employees.

employees pay more attention to health

From the survey results, social benefits such as social insurance and housing accumulation fund are undoubtedly the most popular among employees, and the proportion of employees who think social benefits are the most important is 61.5%. Medical security benefits are closely followed, indicating that employees are increasingly concerned about health.

In addition, employees pay attention to other benefits in order: subsidy welfare, career development welfare, investment and savings welfare and employee life welfare. At present, the popularity rates of catering subsidies, transportation subsidies, house heating subsidies and heatstroke prevention subsidies in enterprises are all over 31%. However, when rising house prices gradually become a common worry for white-collar workers, 76% of employees think that the most important subsidized welfare content is housing subsidies.

for employees' health, most enterprises mainly meet their basic medical needs by providing three kinds of benefits, such as "annual physical examination", "supplementary medical security" and "personal accident protection". However, based on the emphasis on health, employees are not satisfied with the traditional welfare content, but prefer the new medical security benefits. For example, only 6% of enterprises provide the "dental medical security" benefits, but they are loved by 66% of employees.

The survey shows that employees pay more attention to "spouse medical insurance" and "children's medical insurance" while they want to get adequate health insurance, which shows that employees pay more attention to their personal health and hope their families can enjoy more new medical insurance benefits.

therefore, for enterprises, on the one hand, they can increase the investment in medical insurance for employees according to the actual situation, and at the same time, they can also meet the needs of employees in various forms such as "regular health talks" to better reflect the care of enterprises for employees.

Employees of different ages have different needs for welfare.

Although there is no big age difference, employees are most concerned about their career development before the age of 35. At the age of 35, employees will pay more attention to medical and health benefits; With the increase of age, the awareness of investment and savings will continue to increase.

As an important means to cultivate internal talents, training has always been valued by employees, and 68% of employees also hope to receive training. However, according to the survey, only 35% of employees said that the company provided various trainings for themselves. It can be seen that enterprises should pay attention to the cultivation of internal talents while using and recruiting talents, and a mature training system is an important factor to attract and retain core talents.

at the same time, providing employees with job opportunities abroad has become the most popular project in employee career development, but only 11% of employees have ever had such opportunities. The survey shows that the gap between supply and demand of other forms of welfare content, such as "promotion opportunities", "job rotation" and "academic education", is even greater, all exceeding 51 percentage points.

most of the interviewees think that companies should provide clear promotion plans for employees, which will help to improve the morale of employees and help enterprises to maintain vitality. If qualified enterprises can provide employees with opportunities to work abroad, it will greatly enhance the attractiveness and competitiveness of the company.

Investment-saving welfare guarantees the long-term life of employees

With the emergence of various investment-saving welfare, "enterprise annuity" and "stock option" have made people in the workplace no longer feel strange. In the survey, the reporter saw that "enterprise annuity" and "commercial supplementary endowment insurance" have been gradually recognized by many enterprises, but only 11% employees can enjoy these two benefits, most of whom come from large foreign-funded enterprises with more than 511 employees. Followed by "life insurance", "stock option" and "children's education storage insurance", which are 9%, 5% and 1% respectively.

It can be seen that investment-saving welfare has only been implemented in some enterprises, but the overall practice is not extensive. With the increase of age, employees' awareness of investment and savings has been continuously enhanced, and employees' love for enterprise annuity, commercial supplementary endowment insurance and children's education and savings insurance is generally high, reflecting employees' long-term consideration of life security. Some companies with relatively perfect welfare systems provide employees with children's education savings insurance to help some employees solve practical problems and make them more focused on their work.

Flexible working relieves stress for employees

In terms of employees' living welfare, "annual leave" is the item that employees enjoy the highest rate at present, with a penetration rate of 88%, while the penetration rate of other welfare items is relatively low, not exceeding 25%. From the perspective of employee demand, "flexible working hours" is the favorite of employees, accounting for as high as 65%; More than 61% of employees expressed their love for "club activities" and "employee reciprocal platform", while only 19% and 9% of employees said they enjoyed these two benefits respectively.

from the strong demand for flexible work to the extreme desire for "work-life balance", it fully shows that employees hope to release the pressure in work and life through some recreational activities. Therefore, enterprises with conditions can appropriately consider flexible working hours according to their own conditions, and introduce a series of employee welfare benefits, which will effectively alleviate the pressure on employees, fully reflect employee care from the details, thus increasing employees' sense of belonging and improving their work enthusiasm.
