Recently, we partnered with the Thai-Italian Chamber of Commerce (TICC) and Kilpatrick Executive to host a dynamic HR roundtable in Bangkok. This gathering brought together HR professionals and industry leaders. Together, we explored how flexible benefits programs are evolving to meet changing employee expectations and market conditions.
Balancing Cost & Employee Needs
During our HR Roundtable in Thailand, Key speakers included Dr. Pirata Phakdeesattayaphong from PwC Thailand. Also present was our People Solutions Director, Khun Nadporn Srilert. They shared firsthand perspectives on designing flexible benefits that prioritize both cost-effectiveness and employee well-being. Moreover, they highlighted how a well-structured benefits program can bolster work culture, enhance talent retention, and support growth. Attendees also gained insights into practical implementation challenges. For example, they learned about evaluating workforce demographics and applying strong communication strategies to maximize program utilization.
Looking Ahead: Future Workforce Trends
Throughout the discussion, Dr. Pirata highlighted emerging HR trends, including remote and hybrid work arrangements. Consequently, participants discovered how customizable benefits can keep pace with these shifts. Meanwhile, Khun Nadporn spoke about aligning benefits with shifting priorities such as health, wellness, and work-life integration. Therefore, these strategies can help organizations stay competitive in a quickly evolving talent landscape. The discussion continued with an engaging Q&A session where several people from the audience sparked interesting and thoughtful back an forth with the panelists.
