Macmillan Cancer Support Response
1yThank you for taking the time to share your feedback and concerns.
Our colleagues’ wellbeing is critical, and we recognise that change and uncertainty can be unsettling. We have a range of support available including Wellbeing Champions and Mental Health First Aiders and encourage you to reach out for support if you need it.
Over the last twelve months, Macmillan has been transforming and developing its new strategy to ensure we are in the best shape possible to meet the growing needs of people living with cancer in the UK, both now and in the future. Like many organisations, we also need to take tough decisions to manage our costs in the face of a challenging external financial environment.
As part of this work, we are currently reviewing our reward and benefits offer. Our colleagues are vital for enabling Macmillan to do the work it does to support people living with cancer and we want to ensure they feel recognised and valued for their contribution. This is why Macmillan remains a Real London Living Wage employer nationally and is committed to continue to pay colleagues in the upper quartile of the charitable sector pay.
We are working with colleagues to propose how any future changes to reward offers at Macmillan may look in the future, and colleagues have a number of opportunities to share their feedback as part of the process. This process is ongoing and so we are yet to know the outcome of this work. We have also provided a hub of information and resources in various formats to ensure we remain transparent and provide colleagues with the right information and support to navigate any proposed changes. We have conducted an Equity Impact Assessment for each element of the change and a high-level summary of these has been shared on our intranet.
If you feel we could make further improvements to the process or have any other feedback, please do share this via our colleague network.
