Measuring retirement readiness
Central Room A, Ground Floor
Are your members ready for retirement? This session will explore some of the innovative ways that funds
are assessing how ready their members are for retirement. It will also explore how this analysis can be
used to measure the success of a fund’s CEO and organisation scorecards – for example, have goals of
improving the retirement readiness of the fund’s membership year on year been met?

Super and beyond:
a different approach to employer engagement
Central Rooms B & C, Ground Floor
Employers are beginning to understand that employee engagement and productivity are inextricably
linked. This is being reflected in a growing focus on holistic wellbeing programs in today’s workplace.
Driving better outcomes for employees ultimately benefits the organisation.
There may be different business goals and challenges amongst different employers, however they
generally agree on the critical importance of their workforce’s wellbeing to future success.
As super funds, how can we support these ideas for our members, beyond the basics of super and
insurance? In this interactive panel, you’ll hear employers discuss the unique attributes that make
up their workforces and what opportunities and challenges they’re facing. We’ll also hear the latest
research on how employee financial stress can impact productivity.
