About this session

Employee benefits are not limited to pensions, healthcare or major insurance programs.

Many organizations also provide access to retailer discounts, corporate rates, purchasing programs, discounted vouchers, memberships and partner offers that can reduce the cost of things employees already buy.

Yet these savings are often scattered across portals, emails and benefit providers — and may be forgotten after onboarding.

This session helps participants build a clear picture of the shopping-related benefits available through work and connect them with purchases they already expect to make.

They learn to compare the discounted offer with the real market price, calculate the cash value of a saving, check restrictions and determine whether workplace discounts can legitimately be combined with sales, loyalty rewards, cashback or other savings.

The focus is deliberate purchasing, not deal chasing. Participants leave with a practical workplace-savings system that helps them use genuine benefits while avoiding the trap of buying something unnecessary simply because an employee discount makes it feel like an opportunity.
