Why do I have to use all of the employee benefits if I don’t need it?

Sure, you may not use all of your benefits today. But most people, probably you, aren’t aware of all the other benefits your company has spent good money on and taken the time to evaluate and offer. This may include mental health, coaching, financial assistance, and legal services. Often, these services are through an EAP, an employee assistance program, which 90%+ of employees don’t know exist. Our survey told us so.

Why should you and your company care about benefits utilization?

Employers and employees fund their employee benefits packages every month per person regardless whether the benefits are used or not. These benefits packages are part of every employee’s total compensation aka dollars that are paid on your behalf, such as healthcare. So when benefits aren’t used, employers and employees both lose. Why? Because this money could have been spent on things that matter to employees. Nobody likes to waste money. Period.

I haven’t heard any complaints about employee benefits. You’re just trying to sell me software I don’t need.

Based on our data, there are two main problems: 1) employees don’t know they can ask for changes in their benefits 2) employees have gotten used to not being heard from HR leaders that they don’t even bother to ask. If this wasn’t a worthy mission, we’d spend our time elsewhere.
