Employees have become more connected to their benefits, particularly those that can provide a financial safety net in times of crisis or improve their mental health.
Sixty-eight percent of employees expect workplace benefits to play a larger role in their future job selection decisions, but they still don’t want to take the time to choose the ones that work best for them, according to a new Voya consumer survey. Seventy-five percent of employees want their organizations’ help in navigating an unexpected life event, like an accident or critical illness, according to Voya, yet 72% say they would rather service their car, visit the dentist or prepare for tax season than review their benefit options.
