Valuable information for business owners!

A major concern for all business owners is the ability to find and retain quality employees. 

What makes your business attractive to qualified new applicants? 

What makes your top employees want to stay with you?

Something that can identify your small business as one that cares about their employees is the ability to offer benefits.  Most small business owners do not have large budgets, and often dismiss employee benefits as too expensive, and not worth the effort.  The truth is, there are many different types and levels of benefits, some having zero cost to the employer!

The most common employee benefits offered by small businesses are:

  • Paid Vacations; Offered by 75% of small businesses.
  • Employee Health Insurance Plan;61%
  • Paid Sick Leave;59%
  • Disability Insurance;41%
  • Education Reimbursement for Job;39%
  • Pension Plan;30%
  • Life Insurance;29%
  • Dental Insurance;24%
Before you dismiss your business as being too small, or benefits being too expensive, you should look into the options that are available.  You should be at least offering your employees a variety of employee paid benefits, which will boost morale at no cost to you!

Employees will often accept better benefits in lieu of a higher salary, which can be a big savings to the business.
