CASE STUDY

Xansa uses creative reward solutions to manage a diverse workforce

Xansa, the IT and business services company, is constantly acquiring, through TUPE transfers, new employees on terms and conditions which differ substantially from those of its own workforce. An in-depth case study published today by e-reward.co.uk looks at the development of reward and HR practices in Xansa.

Xansa company profile

• Employees: Around 3,500 in the UK, and 5,000 worldwide.
• Location: The company is established in the UK, North America, continental Europe and Asia Pacific with three process and technology centres in India. Many Xansa employees work on clients’ sites.
• Business activities: Xansa is an international business process and IT services company. It creates and delivers process and technology solutions that "significantly improve its client’ s business performance". It offers the following services: business and technology consulting IT implementation IT outsourcing and business process outsourcing.
• Web site: www.xansa.com

Reward challenges

Of Xansa's 3,500 current UK employees, less than half - some 1,500 in total - are on standard terms and conditions, while 2,000 are on legacy terms and conditions from TUPE deals. Xansa’ s approach to reward is designed specifically to deal with this issue, and flexible benefits is the tool it uses to move new employees on to total reward packages which are comparable with those of Xansa employees.
