Employee Benefits 101: How to Find the Best Benefits for Your Team
Employee benefits can be a tough thing to find when you’re trying to build your company and attract talent. These days, you’re finding more and more companies offering benefits that go beyond what’s normal. Employees expect you to offer quality benefits packages, but are you doing your level best to serve them?
Working with The Dale Group will help you make the most of your employee benefits program, save time, and cut costs for everyone involved.
How to Find the Best Employee Benefits
Finding the best employee benefits depends on with whom you choose to work. When you sit down with The Dale Group to build an employee benefits package, we tailor the program to meet your needs.
You cannot buy into a generic package that may or may not work for your team. Depending on the sort of work you do, you may need to offer better:
- Enhanced medical, dental, or vision coverage
- More paid time off
- Extra paid holidays, etc.
Plus, you should look into how you can cut back on your spending related to these plans. The companies that make the best choices for their employees often serve their teams more completely. Otherwise, everyone is spending too much money for less value.
Benefits You Should Offer to Your Team
There are many types of benefits that employers offer their teams, and while these benefits are largely the same, their veracity often depends on how they are paired with policies and procedures. As a result, the benefits you should offer to your team include:
- Health insurance
- Vision and dental coverage
- Workers’ comp
- Life insurance
- AD&D
- Long-term disability
- Long-term care
- Short-term disability
- Retirement savings plans
Pairing your benefits plan with policies and procedures means that there’s a another side of these benefits that will include:
- Generous paid time off
- Paid holiday
- Sick and bereavement leave
Creating a robust combination of benefits promotes wellness because employees can take care of themselves, tend to their families, and continue to earn living.
Evaluating Your Employee Benefits Program
Evaluating your employee benefits plan is just as important as offering a benefits package. Reaching out to us at The Dale Group will help you make a proper evaluation that will include:
- How much is each part of the benefits plan used?
- Are certain benefits overpriced?
- Are employees not gaining value from certain benefits?
When you sit down to truly consider what can be done in the future, you might uncover an even more functional (and beneficial) benefits plan for the new year. If you’re not evaluating the plan, everyone could end up overpaying and receiving less value than was promised initially.
