Small businesses typically have little to no human resources staff, which means the business owner often handles HR duties in addition to all the other responsibilities. In many cases, you don’t have the time and resources to fully communicate your benefits program. Yet employees who understand the benefits they have and the value of what their employer provides appreciate their company more. A Colonial Life poll conducted by Harris Interactive showed that 82 percent of workers who rated their employee benefits education highly also rated their employer an excellent or very good place to work. Conversely, only 27 percent of workers who rated their employee benefits education as fair or poor said their employer was an excellent or very good place to work.1
Having a voluntary benefits partner who can communicate your benefits program — both core and voluntary benefits — and help employees make educated coverage decisions can help take the load off of you. Find a voluntary benefits partner who’s experienced in conducting one-on-one benefits communication sessions and who’s willing to provide this valuable service at no cost. Many larger companies have staff or outside partners to help them with benefits communications and enrollments. But by partnering with a quality voluntary benefits provider, you can take advantage of these services in your own company at no additional expense. It’s a huge competitive advantage.
Voluntary benefits can help you relieve some of the pressure from increasing health insurance costs yet still remain competitive in the marketplace. The benefit to you is an enhanced benefits program, savings in program costs, quality benefits communications and an effective enrollment process. Your employees will benefit from having more coverage choices to meet their needs, plus they’ll understand and appreciate the value of what you provide for them.
Voluntary benefits allow businesses to offer an enhanced benefits package and give employees the flexibility they want.

Voluntary benefits allow businesses to offer an enhanced benefits package and give employees the flexibility they want. In addition, voluntary benefits offer many advantages to employers, including a more attractive benefits package that can help you recruit and retain qualified, professional employees. When combined with the convenience of payroll-deducted premiums, voluntary benefits make an exciting addition to an employee’s existing benefits package.
Voluntary benefits can also help employees who may have coverage gaps. For example, if your company-provided group health insurance has a high deductible, you may want to offer employees a voluntary hospital confinement indemnity plan that would pay benefits for an inpatient hospital stay. The employee could use the benefits to cover the deductible and other out-of-pocket medical expenses. Or if you provide a flat amount of group life insurance, you could offer voluntary life insurance for employees who may need more coverage. Most voluntary benefits plans pay benefits directly to the insured. Then, the insured can use the benefits to pay for expenses not covered by group benefits or for other non medical expenses, such as the mortgage, electricity bills, home health care, rehabilitation, travel to treatment centers, groceries and more.
Today’s benefits environment is complex and ever-changing, which makes it tough to keep up with the latest trends and stay on top of the administrative details. And with health insurance costs continuing to rise, you need easy answers.
