EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
integrated solutions that work for companies and provide security for employees
One of the world’s most respected advisers on retirement plans, Watson Wyatt provides actuarial and strategic plan design consulting services for both defined benefit and defined contribution plans. Our consultants work with clients to provide realistic assessments of the impact of workforce demographics on their retirement plans, corporate cash flow requirements, and retiree benefits adequacy and security. We also offer investment consulting services to pension plans.

Our health care and employee benefit consultants help clients both combat ever-rising health care costs and attract, retain and enhance the productivity of their workforce. Our services include the development of health and welfare plan strategy, design, financing, administration, communication and plan management. And our cost-effective approaches, which engage and empower patients as consumers of health care, deliver quality health care benefits for workers and retirees.

eHR
technology that connects employees to the organization’s evolving business needs
Several forces drove investment in HR technologies to new levels during the late 1990s, including the critical need to address Y2K compliance issues and the concurrent dramatic transition to new web technologies.

Since then, in an effort to drive down costs, businesses have shifted their focus from new technology investment to optimizing these technologies to more efficiently deliver integrated, self-service manager and employee services. Forward-thinking organizations are also leveraging web technologies to improve organizational communications and workforce collaboration to drive worker productivity and business performance.

Our eHR Group works closely with clients to integrate and optimize their HR technologies and services. At the core of our eHR services are delivery and hosting technology solutions for pension administration and health and welfare enrollment and administration. More broadly, our comprehensive eHR approach addresses the expanding set of employment-related programs and services necessary today to inform, develop and manage the employee relationships needed to successfully execute business strategy.

HUMAN CAPITAL
aligning people with business strategy to improve performance
We believe companies that focus on the long-term investment in human capital will bounce back stronger and recover faster as the economy turns.

Compensation plays a critical role in the ongoing effort to attract, retain and motivate a talented workforce. Backed by our proprietary research on the relationship between pay programs and shareholder value, our consultants work with clients to design and implement a wide range of executive compensation and Strategic Rewards® programs, including cash compensation, stock programs, incentives and corporate governance strategies.

Our organization effectiveness consultants help clients build high-performing organizations by working with them to clarify, align and implement HR and business strategies. Our cross-functional teams provide deep expertise in organization measurement, talent management and HR excellence.

OTHER SERVICES
Our mergers and acquisitions consultants provide due diligence and process integration on pension and benefit plans, company cultures and HR strategies. Our communication consultants combine strong creative skills with HR expertise to help employers get the most out of their investment in people, programs and systems. Other services include attraction and retention solutions and cost control strategies across the full range of human capital programs.
