OUR BENEFITS

Employee Benefits

Here at BELMAS we value our people. We strive to ensure you feel appreciated, valued and supported and believe as a company that offering great benefits is key to our success. Benefits help to attract and retain top talent, boost morale, energy and productivity and contributes to healthy and happy employees who without, we wouldn’t be able to operate successfully.

We’re pleased to be able to offer the following benefits package to all employees:

Pension

We want to keep you at BELMAS for as long as possible, and to help us achieve this we try to look after your future as well as your present. This is why BELMAS offer a sector leading double matched pension with AVIVA. Employees put in 5%, while the organisation puts in 10%.

BUPA Private Medical Insurance

This benefit includes outpatient cover, cancer cover, therapies including mental health, physiotherapy etc, with £0 excess fees. Coverage and claim eligibility is subject to BUPA’s policy terms and conditions.

BUPA Health Care Cash Plan

In addition to Private Medical Insurance, BELMAS recognise that there are occasions when you may have ad hoc health costs, e.g. visiting the dentist. Employees are eligible to join the BUPA Health Care Cash Plan, which allows employees to claim up to a specific allowance for a number of health treatments/tests from dental to physio.

Canada Life Group Life Assurance

This benefit is designed to pay out a £50,000 lump sum to a person of choosing, in the event of an employee passing away. We hope that this doesn’t happen, however we want to ensure financial support is provided at an incredibly challenging time.

Canada Life Income Protection and “We Care” Support Package

If you find yourself ill and signed off on long term sickness absence for longer than 13 weeks, we offer Group Income Protection with Canada Life. This consists of 65% salary paid for 3 years, however please note, this is subject to claim acceptance by Canada Life. This also includes Digital GP Service, Second Medical Opinion, Mental Health Support, Get Fit Programme, Nutrition Advice and Financial Guidance.

Remote Working

We work remotely and believe this offers positive work/life balance for our employees, but we do love to see our people too! So we will occasionally get together where possible for strategy days, board meetings, training or just to socialise. We promise to give plenty of notice so you can plan for this and will cover travel expenses. For any BELMAS related business, we will also cover any out-of-pocket expenses including breakfast, lunch and dinner which are all outlined within the Expense Policy.

Fitness Membership and Wellbeing Allowance

We support all aspects of wellbeing but recognise that you know best more than anyone what helps you feel your best. We offer employees the option between the 2 below benefits, so that you can select a benefit right for you.

Option 1: Monthly membership to a fitness and wellbeing club with either Village Gyms or Virgin Active.

Option 2: A monthly wellbeing allowance of £40 to spend on anything that helps you to feel good, whether that’s life coaching, a spa treatment or yoga classes.

Professional Membership Fees

We recognise the importance of having access to learning, networks and support for your professional development but also to help you in your role. BELMAS will pay annual membership fees to a professional body, providing it contributes to your role at BELMAS.

Annual Employee Social

We value the importance of social events for employees as a space for development, reward and wellbeing. This is why we provide funds for one fully-paid social event per year, which is usually held around Christmas and at the end of the financial year.

Employee Family Wellbeing Day

Alongside the Annual Employee Social, BELMAS will provide an additional day leave with a £50 voucher of your choice to spend with your children/family doing the things you love. We recognise that as a global organisation these roles can, from time to time, take you away from your families, and this is a demonstration of how we repay you for your hard work and commitment in these circumstances.

Enhanced Gender-Neutral Parental Leave

We believe everyone should have the opportunity to take parental leave regardless of gender and feels financially supported to do so. We offer 3 months full pay, followed by 3 months half pay for all parents following the birth or adoption of their child
