How can extra benefits increase employees’ appreciation of a health package?
Offering additional benefits options allows employees to customize their health package to meet their specific needs. For instance, in a family where everyone wears glasses or contacts, the option to purchase a vision plan could be a large incentive. For many families, access to affordable dental care is also important. Having a plan where employees and their dependents can afford to go to the dentist for preventive maintenance and for special dental care can be very important. Not only do these additional benefits increase employee satisfaction, but they also enhance employee health and wellness.
