These Aren’t Your Father’s Benefits: How To Navigate Your Way Through The Voluntary Benefits Maze

Original Broadcast Date: Wednesday, June 13, 2012
Cost: Free

Presented by

As the economy continues to stutter along and health care reform brings more uncertainty, one thing remains certain: today’s benefits aren’t your father’s benefits. The benefit landscape is evolving, especially in the voluntary benefit arena. It seems that voluntary benefits are no longer a nice to have. Instead they are a must-haves. This is due to several reasons including that voluntary benefits offer your clients a more comprehensive benefits package without them incurring more costs; are more diverse to meet the needs of a diverse employee base; and can help increase employee loyalty and engagement.

Employers are more receptive than ever to adding voluntary benefits to their packages because they can be positive, tangible, immediate benefits for all employees to access. This moves away from the previous view that benefits are just for critical times like sickness, injury, or deaths.

Join this live, interactive webcast, sponsored by Purchasing Power, and learn about the future of voluntary benefits and current market trends. Attend this online-only event and discover:

• What are the hot, growing, innovative voluntary benefits
• Importance of taking a more consultative approach to benefits
• Why effective communication is vital once benefit packages have been established
