Bringing it all together
The importance of these factors has only been heightened as we live through the impacts of COVID-19. Many of our decisions and overall concern for our health have shifted, creating an increased need for employees to receive individual guidance and suggestions for making the best benefits decisions. One-on-one counseling sessions provide the unique opportunity to cover exactly what your organization offers and is doing for each employee. While it is about the benefits decisions your people need to make, it’s also about communicating and reaching your employees on a level unlike ever before.
So, where do organizations start?
Find a trusted firm that provides an expert team of licensed counselors and variety of communication tactics to meet your workforce needs. Acting as an extension of an employer’s HR team, a counselor solution can drive the results you want while giving your employees the support they need. With personalized counselor solutions, organizations can expect 98%+ of their employees to be more informed about their benefits and have clarity on the direction of their company’s benefit strategy. 2020 has been a tough year on most; reinvigorating your upcoming enrollment strategy with benefit counselor solutions allows your employees to feel confident and in control again, leading to an effective, optimized enrollment experience for all.
