Do your employees understand their benefits?
Not educating your employees about their available benefits can be like not offering benefits at all. Without a true benefits communication strategy, employees feel uninformed and unprepared to make decisions. When employees don’t understand their benefits, they are less likely to purchase them, resulting in missed tax savings, gaps in coverage, and financial risks.
What if you could provide the resources your employees need without overwhelming them at enrollment time or sacrificing hours you need for other tasks?
American Fidelity can help you implement valuable, consistent benefits education, including benefit compliance and regulatory updates, for you and your employees year-round.
Annual and New Hire Pre-Enrollment Education
By providing educational material often and early, your employees have more time to prepare for those healthcare and other benefits decisions, rather than rushing to sort through a ton of information at the last minute.
A Communication Strategy for Every Learning Style
One of our most valuable education resources is our career account managers. They can meet with your employees in group meetings and one-on-one sessions, covering benefits education during enrollment or presentations on Section 125 Plans, reimbursement accounts, or updates to federal and state compliance regulations.
While in-person consultations are popular and beneficial, they’re not the only communication method we offer. The concept of "one size fits all" is no longer acceptable in employee benefits. Employers must continue to find ways to communicate with their employees in a language they understand, through channels they prefer.3 Because of this, our pre-enrollment communication options include a variety of messages and formats:
Year-Round Resources for Enrollment, Compliance, and More
Unlike other one-size-fits-all approaches you might have seen before, our account managers are trained to be true strategic partners for you. This means our communication efforts don’t stop when your annual enrollment ends. In addition to all of our enrollment materials and services, we also offer year-round resources to keep you informed.
