Execs say benefits more about retention than attraction

Published Updated 4 Min Read

In a pair of recent interviews, executives from two of the 10 companies top-ranked for employee financial wellness by the Principal Financial Group both stressed that benefits programs should be tethered as closely as possible to retention and customer satisfaction. Good health care and retirement options are attractive to new hires, they say, but the real return on investment comes with nurturing someone through the company.

Pamela Peterson, vice president of human resources for Davidson Technologies, says that her turnover rate is less than 4%, and that keeps Davidson’s production “on solid ground.”
