When HR teams implement alternatives like convertible PTO, they will improve the financial health of the company and provide employees with the support they need.
As HR teams attempt to navigate yet another series of workplace transformations, it's their responsibility to help employees prepare for whatever 2024 will bring.

While HR teams often think of flexibility in terms of remote work, employees also want professional development opportunities, flexible hours and benefits that meet their unique needs, like daycare reimbursements.
Convertible benefits can help CHROs accomplish this goal by reallocating resources that have already been budgeted to personalized forms of support for their employees.
