Description
Employee benefits are a major component of total compensation packages. For many employers the
cost of providing employee benefits, especially health benefits, is rising at a faster rate than salary
increases. Helping employers understand the value of their benefits will not only help employers manage
their benefit packages better, but will also aid them in selling the value of their benefits to their
employees.
This session will identify the elements of benefit packages that bring the most value, both from an
actuarial perspective and from an employee relations perspective. You'll leave with information to aid
your employer clients in better understanding the value inherent in their benefit packages. In addition,
you'll gain a fresh perspective on how to help your employer customers improve the value of benefit
packages.
