As
well as being Europe’s leading entertainment and communications business Sky is
also a role model for employee benefits and wellbeing. To aid with
communication and education, Sky has held a number of benefits fairs, to which
Specsavers Corporate Eyecare has been invited.
Laura Butler, key accounts manager, and her team from Specsavers
Corporate Eyecare attended the first benefits fair at Sky’s Isleworth site,
which has in excess of 6,000 employees. This was followed by similar fairs in
Dunfermline and Livingstone, where Sky employs 3,500 and 4,000 people
respectively.
‘We
take a vision screener to all sites,’ explains Laura, “which enables us to test
visual acuity – sight over distance. This provides a good indication of whether
an employee should be referred for a full eye examination with their local
optician. For drivers, there are other important factors in whether their
eyesight is adequate, including peripheral vision and the ability to focus
between near and far objects. The purpose of the exercise is, however, to raise
awareness of the benefits of eyecare and to encourage employees to have their
eyesight and eye health checked regularly.’
Sky holds regular benefits fairs to communicate their benefits
packages and to make sure employees are aware of the value they are adding. Input
from Specsavers was welcomed as eyecare has so many wider benefits, of which their
employees may otherwise be unaware.
With more than 700 stores nationwide, Specsavers Corporate
Eyecare is ideal for a multi-sited business like Sky, as there is always an
optician based locally and conveniently for employees. Attending wellbeing
events such as those at Sky enables Specsavers Corporate Eyecare to add value
to its offering by showing the worth of eyecare, It is also often an
opportunity to show drivers in particular how their eyesight may have
deteriorated without them even realising.
