Webinar - How is Unum walking the talk on wellbeing - a case study.

About this event

This webinar explores how Unum is 'walking the talk' on wellbeing, looking at how its own compensation, benefits and inclusion practices align with the themes of prevention, early support and better return‑to‑work outcomes highlighted in the Keep Britain Working review. The session will consider how culture, DE&I and people‑centred design influence an effective benefits strategy, and how tools such as UnumSync reflect shifting workforce expectations. Insights will come from Daniel Barnard, Tiana Scott and Jon Stuart (Unum), with Kay Needle hosting a focused 45-minute discussion for HR and Employee Benefits professionals.
