Compensation and benefits decisions are playing an ever increasing role in helping companies in the region attract and retain the
best talent to enable business growth. However, with so many different possibilities to engage your workforce through rewards and
remuneration, it is a complex task to ensure you are optimising your investment in human capital.
The 19th Annual edition of the Middle East’s leading conference on Compensation & Benefits addresses key challenges faced
by practitioners in the region. The event will examine crucial issues around total rewards, benefits planning, benchmarking and
optimising your employee value proposition.
For 19 years, the Forum has brought together
heads of compensation & benefits, rewards,
performance, organisational development, talent
management and HR strategy to discuss the
discipline’s hottest topics and pressing issues in
the Middle East and beyond.
This is a must-attend event for all professionals
involved in the compensation and employee
benefits industry, from practitioners, consultants
and data providers, to benefits administrators
and insurance companies.

An essential refresher on key C&B skills, a highly practical and
interactive session.
One-day boot-camp on advanced compensation benchmarking
Introduction. With many markets in the region gearing up for
business growth, many employers are facing a challenge of
aligning compensation and benefits practices with business
strategies, and employers will need to be practical in
benchmarking their overall remuneration packages to ensure
they remain competitive in the market, which puts greater
pressure on benchmarking.
This masterclass will enable you to re-equip yourself with key
C&B skills and get a better understanding of the latest best-
practice approaches for conducting a detailed pay benchmarking
analysis on your “total remuneration package” in a GCC context,
with specific tools and spreadsheets being used in a highly
hands-on and practical boot-camp.
Who is this masterclass for?
This one-day masterclass is suitable for both HR generalists and
Rewards specialists. It covers best practice and essential C&B
skills which makes it ideal for all levels of professionals from
Associate to Director/VP level.

A confirmation letter and invoice will be sent to you on receipt of your registration form. Please note that payment must be received
before the event date.
Upon receiving invoice my preferred mode of payment will be:
Cheque p Bank Transfer p Credit Card p
These terms and conditions apply to delegate registrations for all conferences and public training courses (each an "Event") organised by
Informa Middle East. Please read them carefully as they contain important information. By submitting your registration you agree to be bound
by these terms. If you do not agree to be bound by these terms Informa will be unable to accept your registration.
1 Your registration constitutes an offer to Informa to attend an Event. All registrations are subject to acceptance by Informa which will be
confirmed in writing (including but not limited to email). A contract between Informa and you will only be formed when this confirmation is
sent to you (whether or not it is received) provided that if confirmation is not sent within 14 days of us receiving your registration, it will be
deemed to be confirmed unless we notify you otherwise. Informa reserves the right to refuse to accept any registration.
2 Payment for the Event must be received in full by Informa in accordance with Informa's payment terms from time to time in force but in any
event not later than 48 hours before the Event. If payment in full is not received before the Event, Informa reserves the right at its sole
discretion and without liability either to require payment as a condition of entry to the Event or to refuse entry to the Event. No refunds of
any proportion of fees already paid (if any) will be made and any balance of the fees will remain due and payable where entry to an Event is
refused under this condition 2.
3 Discounts for group registrations are only valid for the number of delegates specified. If the number of delegates attending the Event is less
than the number specified in the group booking (either as a result of cancellations prior to the Event or as a result of delegates failing to
attend the Event), Informa reserves the right to revise the fees in line with the number of delegates actually attending the Event in accordance
with Informa's published prices then in force and require payment of such fees in accordance with the terms of condition 2.
4 Prices for each Event are correct at the time of publication. Informa reserves the right to change the prices at any time but changes will not
affect registrations which have already been confirmed by Informa.
5 Registrations cancelled after confirmation by Informa but more than 7 days before the Event are subject to a $200 administration charge.
Registration fees for registrations cancelled 7 days or less before the Event must be paid in full. If you fail to attend an Event, the full fees
remain payable and no refunds will be given. Informa reserves the right to cancel any registration after confirmation in which case all fees
paid will be refunded. You acknowledge that the refund of registration fees is your sole remedy in the event of cancellation of your
registration by Informa and all other liability is expressly excluded.
6 Substitutions are welcome at any time but in all other respects delegate registrations are issued for your personal use only. You may not
purchase registrations as agent for any third party or sell or otherwise transfer your registration to others, or exploit the registration
commercially or non-commercially in any way.
7 You may transfer your registration for a training course to an alternative course provided that the alternative course takes place within 3
months of the date of the original course. Transfers are subject to availability and to the payment of any additional fees due in respect of the
alternative course. You will not be entitled to any refund when you transfer to an alternative course. You may only transfer between courses
once. We regret that we cannot accept cancellations once you have transferred to an alternative course and any fees will be remain payable in
full. We regret that we cannot accept the transfer of registrations between conferences.
8 Informa reserves the right at any time to change the format, participants, content, location and timing or any other aspect of the Event, in each
case without liability.
9 Informa reserves the right to postpone or cancel an Event at any time for any reason whether or not due to causes beyond its reasonable
control. Where an Event is postponed, your registration will be valid for the postponed Event if you wish to attend. Where Informa postpones
or cancels an Event (and you no longer wish to attend the Event where it has been postponed), you will entitled to receive either a credit note
or a refund in respect of the full registration fees at your discretion. You acknowledge that the credit note or refund of registration fees (or the
continued validity of your registration if you choose to attend a postponed Event) is your sole remedy in the event of postponement or
cancellation by Informa and all other liability is expressly excluded.
10 Informa reserves the right without liability to refuse admission to, or to eject from the Event, any person in its absolute discretion, including
(without limitation) any person who fails to comply with these terms and conditions or who in the opinion of Informa represents a security
risk, nuisance or annoyance to the running of the Event. You agree to comply with all reasonable instructions issued by Informa or the venue
owners at the Event.
11 Delegates requiring visas should contact the hotel they wish to stay at directly, as soon as possible. Visas for non-GCC nationals may take
several weeks to process.
12 All unauthorised photography and the recording or transmitting of audio or visual material, data or information is expressly prohibited. You
consent to filming and sound recording and photography of the Event as a delegate and you consent to the use by Informa of any such
recording or photography any where in the world for promotional, marketing and other purposes.
13 The personal information which you provide to us will be held by us on a database and may be shared with other companies in the Informa
Group and selected third parties in the UAE and internationally for direct marketing purposes. For more information about how we use the
information you provide please see our privacy policy at www.informa-mea.com/privacy-policy.
14 Informa excludes all liability for loss, injury or damage to persons or property at the Event. All indemnities, warranties, terms and conditions
(whether express or implied) are excluded. Informa accepts no liability for any loss or damage whatsoever that you may suffer in connection
with or arising from the Event whether direct, indirect or consequential (including but not limited to loss of profit, loss of business or any
other type of economic loss) or otherwise. If Informa is liable to you for any reason, Informa's total liability to you in relation to the Event
(whether under these terms or conditions or otherwise) is limited to the amount of the registration fees paid by you to Informa. The
limitations and exclusions in this condition 13 only apply to the extent permitted by applicable law.
15 Informa reserves the right to amend these terms and conditions from time to time and you will be subject to the terms and conditions in force
at the time you submit your registration.
16 These terms and conditions will be governed by the laws of the Emirate of Dubai and such federal laws of the UAE applicable in the Emirate
of Dubai and disputes under or in connection with them shall be subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of Dubai.
