Does CIPD no longer give access to Perkbox to members?

Cass Clothier over 4 years ago

I have been advised that this platform is no longer accessible to CIPD members - please can you advise?

Thanks

Hi Susan,

Unfortunately, due to Perkbox T&Cs, Student and Affiliate members could not access Perkbox and of course the benefit was irrelevant to international members. That left a small percentage of members who used Perkbox on a regular basis and all members are equally as important to us.

Many members who regularly use this Community tell me this is one of their most valued member benefits.

It is indeed very useful. But there are benefits to helping us do our jobs, and benefits to us as human beings who (whisper it) may not think about HR 24/7. Maybe what has been referred to in other answers is more of the latter?

Hi Annabel, in terms of personal benefits that are available, the main one would be the new wellbeing hub and we've also expanded the personal employment law helpline provision to cover legal advice on more topics including Family, Property Landlord and Tenant, Wills and Probate and more. Calls are also no longer capped. Worth having a look at those if you haven't already as they were introduced recently.

Perk box isn’t any great loss to me personally, but many membership organisations do seem to be able to offer personally-useful member benefits that CIPD don’t seem to wish to provide - eg my Prospect trade union membership gave access to drawing up personal wills for self and wife totally free of charge and has provided very substantial discounts on eg car insurance policies and provides totally free personal injury legal claims support etc.

A good example of what other professional member organisations provide is perhaps
