When the winter weather takes hold, the risks to your cars multiply – icy roads and poor visibility, salt and grit causing damage to your paintwork, and even frozen windscreens. What’s more, journeys are often slower, less predictable, and more demanding. All in all, it’s little surprise that many drivers opt to store their car away for the colder months.

But storing your car away also brings its own challenges for your car, and must be monitored carefully to minimise the risk of harm.When the winter weather takes hold, the risks to your cars multiply – icy roads and poor visibility, salt and grit causing damage to your paintwork, and even frozen windscreens.

Tackling personal bias in your benefits decision making

Employee benefits are a key pillar of any people strategy, shaping how organisations attract, support, and retain talent. But when making decisions, personal biases can take over – often at the expense of your employees. Tackling these biases can deliver not only more tailored benefits, but it can also improve wellbeing, boost productivity, and inspire lasting business success.Employee benefits are a key pillar of any people strategy, shaping how organisations attract, support, and retain talent.
