A poll carried out by BDRC Continental found that 46 per cent of respondents offered no benefits whatsoever, and this was even greater among firms with a turnover of less than £100,000, as 68 per cent of businesses had no reward scheme in place.
In addition, only one in ten businesses were found to be protecting themselves against the impact of a key member of the organisation being unable to work.
Commenting on the figures, Shiona Davies, director of business to business for BDRC Continental, said: "This survey is clear evidence that the vast majority of small businesses are failing to protect themselves against the business impact of losing key employees."
It follows the results of a recent survey published by Aaron Wallis Sales Recruitment, which showed that a big motivator for sales staff to remain with an organisation is the prospect of career progression, as well as their employer's products, reputation and competitive edge.
