This report provides a detailed summary of what we learned. Highlights of the report show that the right benefits approach and employee experience enable:

- Employers to find and keep talent they need to grow and run their business
- Stronger employer-employee relationships and engagement based on higher degrees of trust
In order for employers to better engage their people, they must not only meet basic needs (e.g., competitive pay, workplace safety), but also provide benefits, resources, and experiences that empower employees to live their best lives.
