DISCUSSION
The health care industry is one of the most effected industries after introduction of pandemic
situation within the environment. Due to the enhancement in demand of healthcare people and
shortage of the workforce supply within the industry, the qualities of services and patient
experiences also get affected drastically. Therefore in order to get rid from such challenges,
recruitment of best talents is one of the key elements that drive the organizations towards
success. This discussion is based on the healthcare industry within the UK which provides
detailed focus along with the discussion on the objectives that has been prepared for the
completion of this research.
Objective 1- To evaluate the key attributes of employee value proposition in the health care
industry in UK
From the perception of various researchers as well as articles it has been analysed that
Employee value proposition provides unique value of benefits to the employees and the
employee also get consequently from the talent, potential and knowledge that they express to an
organization. But after the effects of pandemic situation that has been faced by the industry, it
has been evaluated that hiring and keeping employees in the health industry is highly difficult
and this related to the recruitment as well as retention tool. Good employees in the UK based
hospitals are the results of major health care benefits, leave benefits, retirement benefits,
prevention benefits and many more which are related to various other sectors and contribute
towards the growth of healthcare industry. Employee value proposition helps drastically in most
of the healthcare companies in order to enhance the competition level and able to work in
difficult situations which include recent pandemic situation (The Relationship between Employee
Value Proposition and Employee Loyalty: A Conceptual Framework, 2019).

It has been evaluated that the pandemic situation changed the whole concept as well as the
relationship among the employees as well as employer. Leading organization and make
employers update about their employees, both are related to different propositions and make
involvement through different sources of the company. In the healthcare industry it is generally
related to various requirements and demand of employees but enhanced competition are not able
to make and recruit talented staff members. The major purpose of employee value proposition is
delivering shareholders value, attracting, motivating and retaining of employees and finally
inspiring customers’ loyalty. Various researchers had demonstrated that work and organization
are the factors for employees in order to stay or leave any establishment. Employees view
rewards, opportunities and work when deciding to stay within the company or leave the
organization. There is always a positive relationship between company’s factors and employee
loyalty. Effective benefits create a sense of satisfaction among employees which ensures the
safety and high amount of retention of employees within the hospitality industry. After inclusion
of pandemic situation, it has been identified that people demand more rather than desired
demands. Furthermore, EVP make a right balance between employees and managing large
number of people (Employer Value Proposition: A Conceptual Framework and Scale
Development for Indian Information Technology Professionals, 2021). The values are able to
help the companies in healthcare industry in order to work and retain their employees with the
usage of major workers who are able to work but not ready to work because of ineffective health
care facilities. So, employee worth proposal is an innovative and significant concept in
healthcare industry to United Kingdom in order to highlight the role of employees and create
their right image or value within the hospital sector. According to the current scenario, it has
been seen that employees are looking to leave their current companies and wants to grab new
opportunities which offered the chance to have greater job stability, higher payment salary, and
which offer better work-life balance in their life in order to sustain their lifestyle in better way.
Objective 2- To measure the key components of employee’s value proposition in the healthcare
industry in UK
An employee value proposition is known as the combination and contribution offered by
an establishment for the understanding, expertise as well as potential. It shows significant
contribution towards employee engagement. It is basically what an employee receives in return

to their contribution within the organization (Implementing an Employee Value Proposition in
the GCC: A Case Study on TNT Express, 2021). Therefore, it has been evaluated that it is a kind
of reward, recognition and financial benefit which explains the concept of EVP in detailed
manner. Mainly there are five major components which is included by the healthcare industry in
order to analyse the employee value proposition such as:
 Monetary remuneration: It is basically a kind of monetary incentives that has been
earned by employees in regards to their good performances. These kind of rewards are
highly connected with the organizational goals. When employees helps the company in
order to achieve their goals and objectives, there is the responsibility and duty of the firm
to provide them gifts as well as rewards in order to keep them satisfied. It is a kind of
financial motivation for employees which helps to enhance the business revenue, leading
employees’ payment at enhanced level, higher productivity level decreases turnover
along with greater job satisfaction which also helps to create positive culture within the
work place and helps to achieve personal career goals as well to the employees.
 Employment profits: It is kind of package that has been provided by establishment which
includes overtime expenses, medical insurance facilities, profit sharing as well as
retirement benefits. Offering of benefits to employees are highly important as it helps to
attract and retain best of talented employees. Benefits help the organizations to become
different from their competitive firms. There are various benefit packages which are
majorly based on work and depend upon the industry in which employees are working.
These are manly related to the workers who serve their duties to Covid patients and
duties related to pandemic situation that creates huge impact within the United Kingdom.
With the help of such benefits, employers are able to retain their talented employees
within the organization to provide efficient services within the society as well.
 Profession expansion: With the increased professional development it has been analysed
that the care of patients also increased regardless of workers roles as the more they learn
the more they are able to contribute towards the betterment of the patients (A STUDY
AND REVIEW OF EMPLOYEE VALUE PROPOSITION: A TOOL OF HUMAN
RESOURCE MANAGEMENT, 2014). Major benefits that includes after getting complete
and detailed training are become an efficient leader, technical trainer, mentor, counsellor,
as well as specialist in particular field will more or less provides benefits to the needy

people living in the society. With the help of employee value proposition, employees
offered great career growth plan to the worker and through this they are able to manage
their resources.
 Occupational surroundings: Having good and productive working environment is highly
important in order to create positive culture within the work place for employees as well
as employers. This is basically effective with the benefits provided by the firms such as
flexible working hours, efficient work life balance, and effective team management along
with proper communication channel in order to make employees work appropriately in
organization space. It has been analysed that in many healthcare stations, creation of
positive working environment is highly beneficial as well as important which helps to
create meaningful nature. This helps to make positivity among employees and make them
engage with the source of management.
 Corporation civilization: Within the health care industry, the different kind of culture and
values creates a great role in the growth and expansion of company as well as employees
also. With the help or involvement of employee value proposition, trust factor has been
created which helps the organization to create a positive relationship among employer
and employees which also helps to generate positive environment and do their work in
well-organized manner.
Objective 3- To understand the critical factors that influence a candidate’s decision in order to
accepting a Job offer in the healthcare industry.
After the introduction of critical situation related to pandemic, the employment rate within
the hospitality industry has been declined drastically all over the world. Within this, the most
affected team are the human resource team as they are continuously struggling for the
employment opportunities provided by them to efficient workers and select them on the basis of
their talents and skills. There are various factors which helps the HR people to attract more
candidates towards their business organization which are:
 Stretchy operational hours: Most of the employees are happy for the flexible working hour’s
criteria as it provides huge amount of freedom and positivity to the people who are working
within an organization. Health care industry are most affected business as after the situation
of pandemic, most of the workers have to work nonstop and extended working hours because

if such critical situation. Flexibility in working hours creates a sense of satisfaction among
employees as it makes work life better and makes flexibilities within the society as well.
 Medical insurance facility: With the involvement of the medical insurance facility, it helps
to create a sense of security among employees and sense of feeling of importance that they
are highly important for the company that is why they have been offered such provisions.
These kinds of benefits are highly reliable in nature and completely able to attract and retain
their efficient staff within the workplace as it creates a sense of significance among them
(Gender Differences On Employee Value Proposition, Growth Mindset And Employee
Engagement In Malaysian Hotel Sector, 2019).
 Retirement profits: These are the kind of benefit which helps in order to make sense of
positivity in the minds of employees as the employees feel free for their future life. It has
been evaluated that effective strategic human resource management are able to plan
retirement plan of employees in more appropriate manner. With the help of this benefit,
employees keep attracted towards the organization even after feeling difficulties within the
workplace sometimes, but then also this benefit over power the drawbacks related to working
environment.
 Life indemnity: This helps the employees to feel that they are important as well as their
family members are also important for the firm in which they are working. This type of
insurance benefit is highly important as in the health care industry; the risk related to heath
has been increased at any point of time. It has been analysed with the current situation i.e.
pandemic that to plan the future for the well being of family members are highly important in
order to sustain everybody’s life in most appropriate manner.
Objective 4 - To establish the role of employee value proposition in order to attract more key
talent in healthcare industry in UK.
Employer branding is significant for an association in order to be a magnet for top talent.
Designing of employee value proposition in a unique manner in the organization will drastically
help to improve talent acquisition and retention. It makes the management related to talented
employees became attractive as well as easy for passive candidates. The efficient EVP helps the
organization to attract top talent towards their establishment as with the involvement of this
technique within the recruitment procedure, it has been evaluated that it creates a great and major

changes within the health care industry. Potential employees became more and more sensible in
their job searches. Recruitment is a procedure of receiving applications, selection and then hire
correct candidate within the establishment in order to serve the position in best possible manner
along with as early as possible. While with the introduction of effective employee value
proposition it also includes consciousness, deliberation and attention among candidates related to
that particular position. However, this made attracting top talent within the health care industry
became more tough or harder for human resource professionals as the candidates are able to
search right kind of job matching to their talent and skills. Therefore constant as well as efficient
communication of employees’ value proposition enhances employer branding an extremely
important element in an individual’s life.
It helps in retaining top talented people in health care industry as there is shortage arises
after the pandemic situation as most of the workers are afraid from serving patients after such
drastic situation. Attracting talented employees is tough for an organization but retaining and
sustaining the employees within the establishment has become even more complex process for
the employers as they are more aware about the processes and environment within the
organization. It is more important because they are able to serve better services than any other
new candidate. Losing talented employees means losing productive people from the work place
which is hard and difficult to replace. Their replacement is time consuming as well as expensive
for the firm as it connects with a long procedure in order to recruit new staff members and
provide efficient training to get them aware about the functioning within the work space
(Employee Value Proposition: A Tool for Employment Branding, 2015).
Optimization of recruitment expenses is also important as Company’s employee value
proposition is compelling and the HR people become able to receive more applications from
talented candidates. Moreover, the human resource team members will have to spend less
amount of money on recruitment agencies, Job related advertisements, marketing of the company
as well as other talent hire or attainment measures. Thus, it helps to fall per hire value to the
company. Another advantage is that, EVP helps to retain talented staff members will also
reduces the additional recruitment costs as well as training cost. This provides benefit of a
sizeable amount to the firm and due to which the health care industry are able to provide
efficient training and education methods for their newly hired as well as their existing candidates
and offer various kind of benefits to them to make the success in their future terms as well. This

procedure also helps to properly manage the working condition as well as culture of employers
department in order to provide high amount of satisfaction to employees. With the involvement
of this, the candidates are able to work in more managed and proper manner. Therefore, it has
been evaluated that the employee value proposition should never be confusing for any of the
employee within the company which should be their primary mission statement and also able to
provide core values as well as culture code to the employees. It generates a sense of reciprocity
among employers as well as candidates those are working within the company and add mutual
benefits to both of them. It helps to generate value to one another in terms of employment
opportunities and to the employer brand image accordingly.
RECOMMENDATION
For retaining talent within the healthcare industries of UK the employees’ value preposition is
having a vital role. Because when the employees get adequate amount of rewards and other
encouragement from the healthcare industry then they will stay in the organization from long-
term. The people of UK are more aware about the market, and they will shift easily to some other
company then they are not finding an adequate offering from the industry. When the healthcare
industry is mainly focuses on the packages which they are providing to the employees because
the top must priority is to have a favourable income as per the skills and capability of employees.
In this they also want more than the remuneration an employee with higher talent and skill will
remain with the organization.
To provide adequate development opportunities to the employees so that they are more
motivate to remain within the industries of healthcare. When the career of the employees get
enhance within the industry then they will not go to plan to shift to some other industry. They
should also provide a healthy culture within the organization so that they are comfortable to
perform their duties and work more effectively. When the employees’ value proposition is
effective in healthcare industry of UK then other industry people are also influenced to join the
healthcare industry.
The healthcare industry can be retained the most talented people by using the employees
value proposition effectively. The employees get more benefits than they will more engaged so
for that healthcare industry in UK should analysis the market trends and employees preference to
engage in the job profile and further offer them more than other to retain them for long-term. In

the healthcare the employees of UK expect paid holidays, their respective issuance and
disabilities benefits. So this all is to be provided to the employees so that they are willing to
remain the same industry.
An employee must provide all those advantages that are unique in the healthcare industry than
any other industry. The employees are also thinking to get more unique benefits in when they are
also having some unique capabilities and skills so their talent is also needed some different
benefits which are not given in other industries. When the healthcare industry uses to recruit an
employee’s then they always should present all the benefits and advantage that are given to the
employee under healthcare in UK so that they get aware and be more influenced to work in the
healthcare industry (Influence of Employee value Proposition on Employer Brand, 2019.). The
healthcare industry also add on the benefits which are being provided to the employee to attract
then within the industry because talent people are less preferring to enter in healthcare industry
in UK. With the effective rewards and facilities as well as job security the healthcare should
offer to the talented people. Without offering better opportunities from other industries the
healthcare can not able to retain talented employees.
CONCLUSION
From the above report it has been concluded that employee value proposition and employee
loyalty are two successful aspects which shows positive implementation of work into practice in
the healthcare industry. Today’s environment creates drastic changes along with creation of new
challenges in order to attract new talented people within the organization as well as make them
satisfied in order to retain them for long term services. After including cost cutting measures as
well as layoffs, employees tries their maximum to leave the job and search something better
which helps in order to fulfil their demand and desires within their life and thus also helps to
enhance their life style. In order to avoid such unwanted situations, Establishments tries their
maximum to provide new and innovative benefits to their employees which keeps them satisfied
and also helps to make the workforce as a best and positive place to work along with different
people.
The concept of employee value proposition has been generated and served from various
years. But many organizations have yet to analyse the importance of this concept as companies
have to create an attractive employee value proposition on order to keep attracted their existing

employees as well as also attract more and more new candidates towards the company in health
care industry with the involvement of various extra benefits which includes various facilities
related to bonuses, life insurance facilities, flexible working hours and many more. Creation of
EVP in wrong manner results in costly mistake for the firm as well as frustrating for the human
resource people as well. It becomes negative for the establishment especially when the demand
of efficient employees became high so in order to take advantage of such situation, health care
industry companies have to prepare the employee preposition plan in a manner which provide
better and strong support to their employees as well as the establishment. The preparation of
great employee value proposition includes 6 steps which are:
 Assessment of currently offer within the health care sector company
 Interview has been conducted for existing as well as previous employees
 Defining key components of employee value proposition
 Write the worker worth proposal
 Promotion of the concept through the medium of right channels
 At the end evaluation of final results has been conducted
Out of the various stages, it has been analysed that promotion step is highly crucial for the
betterment of the employees as well as the firm. The promotion of this plan includes internal as
well as external communication because the ways in which communication has been shared with
the employees creates a direct impact on employees’ experiences that has been delivered to them
which includes:
 Personalized news feed related to employees job preferences, functions, roles and duties,
interests, location, languages and many more.
 Real time communications along with provide them easy access on mobile as well as
other electronic measures.
 Keep all the employees connected and informed about the employee value proposition.
 Easily able to divide the content according to the internal as well as external candidates.
 Create efficient channels completely dedicated towards the company.
 Connect efficient communiqué, teamwork and manuscript sharing tools.

 Provide detailed data to the employees in order to engage them or connect them in better
way.
 Enable employees to become trade name representative by sharing significant news
related to health care industry.
Above all are the internal modes of communication through which the employee value
proposition has been shared with the employees effectively. However, externally, it has been
promoted with the help of social media such as website career pages, recruitment audios as
well as videos, employee referral programs, LinkedIn website, etc. Thus, all these factors
help the organization to create best framework in order to run the organization effectively.
However, there is no specific model related to recruitment of best talented people and their
management has been created by any researcher but it somehow helps to create a reliable
environment for the employees within the health care industry.
