Fall is a time for fresh starts — and that includes your employee benefit offerings, too. 

In this week’s top stories, executives from Bank of America and software company Aurea share the employee benefits that are worth your time and investment — and the ones that are not. Financial wellness benefits that help employees manage their retirement savings, as well as address their individualized financial needs, are at the top of the list; office space falls at the bottom.

The workforce has made it clear that the decision to stay with or choose a company comes down to how valued they feel. And whether it’s flexible working hours or doing more to support employee health and wellness overall, workers want their companies to provide solutions and resources to help them. 

Hiring platform Remote surveyed over 2,000 full-time employees in the U.S. to reveal the “work perks” employees are looking for in 2022. Overtime pay came out on top as Americans’ most desired work perk, followed by services supporting employee health and wellness.
