Guides written to be useful, even if you never become a client.

Four collections on the questions HR teams actually search for: PoSH compliance, employee benefits in India, engagement that isn’t a pizza party, and running a GCC’s India programme. No gates, no gimmicks, and the one downloadable that is gated says so honestly.

Working tools

Three things you can use today.

The benefits grid

Every benefit in the RISE wallet, in one downloadable PDF, for the comparison spreadsheet you are inevitably building.

The pricing calculator

Headcount in, indication out. No email, no capture, no callback. The number is yours to walk away with.

The Security & DPA pack

Processing roles, residency, retention, sub-processors and consent architecture, built for your infosec review. The one gated asset on this site, gated because it is versioned to you.

Once a month, worth opening

Notes for HR.

One email a month for people running benefits, compliance and culture in India. It covers what changed in the law, what we are seeing across teams, and one thing worth doing this month. Written like the rest of this site: useful even if you never become a client.

Two promises about the list itself: it is Ethika Worklife’s own list, never merged with, shared with, or sold to anyone, including the insurance broking side of the group, and unsubscribing is one click that actually works.

Consent is unticked by default and purpose-specific, per our data rules.

Take what’s useful. That’s the whole deal.

The guides are ungated, the calculator captures nothing, and the newsletter asks for a name and an email with one honest consent box. If any of it helps you run benefits better, with us or without us, this page did its job.
