Voluntary benefits

The transactional nature of voluntary benefits as a standalone strategy outside total rewards is fading, as is adding benefit solutions for the sake of volume. Now, employers understand the necessity of offering the right design of competitive solutions that provide enough choice and customization to fit employees’ current and future life stages, plus ensuring benefits delivery is an effective employee experience for their workforce.

When both are strategically executed, design and delivery can improve employee satisfaction, increase employee value propositions, and distinguish employers among competitors.

By providing comprehensive benefits, through voluntary benefits, employers can address health risks, protect their employees, and ultimately create a foundation for them to thrive at work and beyond.

The benefits landscape is always changing, but Mercer stays in the know to keep our clients competitive.
