Benefits

We offer a comprehensive, market-competitive pay and benefits package to support employees professional and personal needs. This may vary according to your role and location.

Our approach to remuneration consists of four main elements:

  • Fixed pay

  • Annual leave

  • A range of benefits, which may cover areas such as work-life balance, insurance and savings, health and personal development

  • Employee share plans and discretionary pay awards based on performance

We believe that the way people achieve their goals is essential to the long-term sustainability of our business. As a result, annual performance reviews also take into account employees’ adherence to HSBC’s values.

Our approach to remuneration, including any discretionary incentive or performance-related awards, is designed to reward success appropriately and to ensure that what we pay employees is aligned with our business strategy. To achieve this, we assess individual performance against our annual and long-term financial and non-financial objectives.

The wellbeing of our colleagues is a top priority. We believe it is a key enabler in reaching our purpose of opening up a world of opportunity. This is why we offer a huge range of resources to support the physical, mental, social and financial wellbeing of you and your family. At HSBC, your wellbeing comes first. Whether it's feeling like you can take the time out to exercise, having an open and supportive conversations with your manager, or getting professional support when you need it – no matter who you are, no matter where you're at, we're here for you.
