PENJERDEL Employee Benefits & Compensation Association (PEBA)

PEBA's 29th Annual Forum

Thursday April 21, 2011
The Philadelphia Marriott
12th & Market Streets

No matter what your industry, the past two years have brought tremendous change to “business as usual”. But the recession is ending, and the most forward thinking companies are starting to think about their next big challenge: employee engagement. Competition for top employees is increasing and a shift in the balance of power from employer to employee is starting. Employers need to start asking tough questions. Are our Benefits Plans competitive enough to attract employees? Can employees grow and be fulfilled in their jobs? Do they have the resources and training to achieve their goals? Does our Total Rewards Strategy actually align with our business goals and reward high performance? Come join PEBA for full day of education, professional development, and networking to help you answer these key business performance questions.
