Benefits of Protecting Your Employees

Big I Best Practices Agency 2022

Increased Employee Satisfaction & Productivity

For many business owners, two major goals are acquiring a robust customer base and increasing revenues. To do so, they rely on employees who keep the business running in exchange for a salary or hourly wage. Offering benefits to employees can help reduce turnover and avoid the cost of training new staff. Because the cost of benefits, especially those involving healthcare, increases each year, many business owners are constantly searching for packages that cater to their employees’ needs while remaining affordable.

In early 2017, MetLife Insurance Company released its 15th Annual U.S. Employee Benefit Trends Study, which surveyed more than 2,600 full-time employees across the country. These were the results:

MetLife found that many employers rely on an insurance broker or agent to help employees understand benefits and insurance. Moreover, 81 percent of employers stated that an agent or broker played a role in their decision to select certain benefits during a renewal period. Commercial insurance companies such as King Insurance Partners offer employee coverage that is easily tailored to individual needs. We’re available 24 hours a day to answer questions and help educate employees about the benefits you provide.

Group Benefits

Group benefits commonly include dental, health, and life insurance, along with flexible spending and health savings accounts. A comprehensive group plan goes a long way toward retaining valuable team members and attracting outstanding future employees. The MetLife survey found 58 percent of employees want benefits that meet their needs. King Insurance Partners works to find these customizable business insurance benefits and adjust them as needs change over time.

Health Insurance

Employer-provided health or medical insurance is considered a must-have benefit by 88 percent of employees. Their bosses seem to agree, for 61 percent of employers feel responsible for their employees’ health and well-being. Yet, the glut of information found while trying to navigate the health insurance landscape is overwhelming for many employers. Don’t stress over the number of options — contact King Insurance Partners today!

Dental Insurance

Dental care goes hand in hand with overall health. For 68 percent of employees, dental insurance is a must-have. Regular dental care can prevent costly procedures that require employees to take time off work to recuperate.

Life Insurance

Maintaining a work–life balance is important to employees, and for those with dependents, it carries extra prominence. Life insurance provides a sense of security in case a what-if situation becomes reality. King Insurance Partners can create a commercial insurance group policy best suited for your business.

Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs)

Commonly found with premium-only commercial insurance policies, FSAs allow employees the opportunity to save for future health expenses. FSAs have several additional benefits to businesses, such as lower payroll taxes.

Health Savings Accounts (HSAs)

HSAs differ from FSAs in that employees are able to reserve part of each paycheck tax-free. Many people use their HSA funds to pay toward a health insurance deductible when a medical situation arises.

Group Disability Insurance

Many business insurance providers such as King Insurance Partners understand the sheer importance of employees being able to provide for themselves and dependents. In fact, 43 percent and 45 percent of the employees surveyed by MetLife consider short- and long-term disability insurance must-have benefits, respectively. By offering group disability insurance, your business can help reassure employees in times of uncertainty.

Voluntary Benefits

Voluntary insurance for your business comes in many forms, from financial counseling to concierge services. It benefits businesses through increased employee satisfaction with little to no additional cost. Employees can choose à-la-carte benefits to fit their lifestyle.
