Working at DLA Piper: Benefits

In line with our policy of recruiting and retaining the best we have developed a benefits package linked to our core values and the needs of the business.  Our aim is to reward those who invest time and commitment in the business through a range of benefits which takes account of lifestyle, well being, careers and teamwork.  The effectiveness of our benefits package was recognised externally when we were credited with having the most effective benefits programme at the 2004 HR Excellence Awards.

At DLA Piper we provide benefits such as pension, private healthcare insurance, and life and permanent health insurance.  Our benefits package is designed to actively encourage individuals to make time for the important things in life such as family and leisure.  The service holiday scheme rewards service with extra holiday entitlement, while our family-friendly flexible working policy allows people to work in a way that suits both their individual needs and those of the business.  Expectant mothers and anxious fathers are looked after through enhanced maternity and paternity schemes while all employees are entitled to benefit from our LifeWorks^TM Assistance and Concierge services.  These provide all our people with a confidential telephone-based information and referral service and, where required, an extra pair of hands to do all the everyday time-consuming personal tasks that are sometimes not achievable in a busy professional's working day.
