Group Benefits
Build a cost-effective customized group benefits plan to reflect the unique requirements of each segment of your employee and compensation model. In Canada, offering a strong employee benefit plan, which supplements government healthcare with additional insurance products, is one of the best ways to attract and retain top-notch talent to your company.
Every single company has different health considerations. We work hard to ensure that the plan you have fits those unique needs and will collaborate with you to shape a benefit plan that will fit into your budget. We can also compare your current plan to others in your industry, and explore different insurance companies to find the best fit for you. We’ll walk you through an honest cost analysis and price comparison within the industry.
Here are examples of the various benefits you may consider for your company:
Group Health and Travel
We all love to travel and your employees are no different, but it’s important we are covered in case of an emergency. That’s why we partner with top industry providers to incorporate travel insurance when designing a group benefit plan.
Group Dental
Everyone wants to work with a company who offers a robust dental plan, it’s a great hiring tool you can leverage to attract new employees. There can be many options from single and couple to family. Much like your health plan, we advise you on the best options for your business and your budget.
Group Life and AD&D
Group Life and Accidental Death and Dismemberment insurance can help protect those you love from financial hardship. For many families, this coverage is part of a smart financial plan yet is often overlooked. Life insurance pays a tax-free benefit directly to named beneficiaries, such as spouse, partner, children or other loved ones to help directly with replacement income, medical expenses, funeral/burial costs, taxes, child care, and debts.
Group Critical Illnesses
Critical Illness insurance helps cover out-of-pocket expenses associated with a serious illness. You may have medical insurance, nut that doesn't mean you're covered for all of the expenses resulting from a serious illness that you probably haven't budgeted for — things like co-pays, deductibles, loss of income, child care and travel expenses. Group Critical Illness insurance helps fill the gap caused by these out-of-pocket costs, creating a financial safety net for employees.
Group Wellness and Health Care Spending Accounts
When implemented correctly, wellness programs give employees incentives, tools, social support, privacy, and strategies to adopt and maintain healthy behaviors. When employees are at work but not fully functioning, more mistakes are made, and time and money are wasted. It is estimated that the cost associated with presenteeism due to poor employee health is at least 2 to 3 times greater than direct health care expenses.
EAP
An employee assistance programme (EAP) is a confidential service that enables your staff to seek help with personal or workplace issues that might be impacting their performance, wellbeing, mental or physical health. EAP services are a valuable tool to help people navigate life's difficult moments. We want to provide employees with the help they need, when they need it.
Optional Benefits
Group options for additional employee, spousal or dependent Life, or Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) allow employees to a cost effective choice in their benefits, as well as, choose the right amount of insurance coverage to meet their personal needs. Some amounts can be attainable without medical questionnaires, as well as, portable if they were to leave their current employment.
