The new distributed workforce of 2020 has put employers in a unique position. They not only have to manage largely remote workforces, but they also need to support employees through some of the toughest well-being challenges (both mental and physical) yet. The employee experience has transformed—and as a result, HR professionals have to pivot. As […]

Employers know that benefits investments are large, complicated, and costly. In fact, 30% of total rewards comes from benefits, rather than wages/salary (whether employees realize that, however, is a different story). Companies spend, on average, more than $11 per hour—per employee—on benefits. The truth is, using benefits as a tool for recruitment and retention is […]

The recent months have exposed an important truth for employers: powerful communication capabilities are a must-have, not a nice-to-have. In times of crisis—and all other times, for that matter—employees need to be reached in pivotal moments that can make a difference. Whether it’s about quickly-evolving information that could impact someone’s health in an emergency, or […]

According to a recent Harvard Business Review (HBR) study, only 28% of corporate leaders say employees take full advantage of their healthcare coverage. For many companies, that’s their single most expensive benefit. In fact, it costs large U.S. employers nearly $15,000 per employee with family members.

More than 80% of U.S. workers say their job satisfaction is tied to benefits satisfaction. Some might say that makes an HR director’s job easy—but they’d be wrong. The reality is employee satisfaction is very much a moving target. In a still-tight job market, HR and benefits teams need to manage an increasingly complex set […]
