Did you get a chance to review this EBRI “Special Edition” Issue Brief — Expanding the Benefits Horizon: How Employers View Voluntary Offerings?

The benefits landscape is rapidly evolving in the workplace. As employers navigate a dynamic labor market and look to attract and retain a talented work force with diverse needs, one option is to extend their benefits offerings beyond core benefits like retirement plans and health insurance. Data from EBRI’s previously published Financial Wellbeing Employer Survey suggest that organizations are increasingly broadening their offerings to include a wide range of benefits that address an equally wide range of worker concerns and priorities. Voluntary benefits — such as dental, vision, and supplemental health benefits — can play a role in helping workers manage day to-day expenses, weather unexpected events, and better prepare themselves and their families for the future. To build upon the learnings of this survey and to develop a deeper understanding of the voluntary benefits market landscape, EBRI has partnered with Lincoln Financial to field this Issue Brief, “Expanding the Benefits Horizon: How Employers View Voluntary Offerings,” which uncovers trends, challenges, and opportunities for strengthening financial protections available to workers at employers of all sizes.
