Depending on the size, demographics and level of benefit knowledge among the people who comprise your workforce, there may be value to keeping your benefit program simple and understandable. Most employees already juggle a variety of responsibilities between home life and work life and piling on additional complications from a poorly planned or communicated benefit program without sufficient supporting resources doesn’t help.
Companies can start by showing their employees they care by
developing a well-thought out, consistent benefit strategy that evolves
over time rather than undergoing drastic shifts from year to year. By
communicating the cohesive strategy and its associated details on a regular
basis through an organized, user-friendly multi-media campaign, employees can
better understand their benefit options and make more confident, informed
decisions. And by providing employees with ample and targeted resources
to facilitate a smooth decision making and enrollment selection process,
employers also win, since their benefit dollar expenditures will yield maximum
returns and help improve employee morale and productivity.
