Advantages of using Orbit

Orbit Benefits

Orbit Benefits Limited Orbit Benefits Limited ('Orbit') is a UK consultancy that sets up, runs and communicates employee benefit packages for corporate clients. By providing employees with access to our own transactional benefits system, for online empowerment through the internet, as well as the financial expertise of our qualified consultants, Orbit is uniquely well-positioned to help UK companies take advantage of the A-Day pension changes.

With Orbit, employees can control benefits much more efficiently by actively managing them online, including pensions with multiple investment managers and protection schemes like life cover, income protection and healthcare. Employers gain from improved productivity in HR and finance departments, as much of the management of benefits is taken over by employees, and a much clearer view of the costs and take-up of each benefit.

A-Day pension calculator

The Orbit benefits system includes an interactive pension calculator, built specifically for the A-Day pension changes applying from April 2006. It brings an unparalleled level of understanding and control to this crucial benefit and sets a new standard for pension modelling. Every employee can enjoy a personalised experience that delivers value again and again.

Jim Carlton, Orbit CEO, says:

"Companies spend a lot of money on benefits, especially pensions, yet many employees don't understand what they're getting. Benefits can seem remote and intangible. Our role is to communicate and educate, to help employees appreciate what their company provides and encourage them to plan responsibly for their future. The Orbit system shows employees a personalised summary of their benefit status, updated every day. We give them the knowledge to reach informed decisions, and the tools to take action online. Employees love it because they are in control, and employers, advisers and insurers all gain through the reduced costs of running benefits."
