Why offer a benefits or savings plan?

If you’re a small business, choosing a benefits or savings plan might seem like a big step. It can also be a great way to separate yourself from the competition, as 86% of plan members Footnote 1 agree that their health benefit plan is an important factor when deciding on a job offer.

Offering a benefits or savings plan not only helps you attract and keep top talent, it’s also affordable, costing as little as 1 - 5% of payroll. No matter the budget, we’re here to help you choose the right plan without compromising your bottom line.

Find a plan

Here’s how a plan can help

  • Keep talent

    A benefits or savings plan can help you find and keep top talent, staying competitive.

  • Boost morale

    Benefits or savings can help boost morale and increase productivity.
