Most companies have to provide their workers with certain employee insurance benefits. These plans might include workers’ compensation, health insurance and other supplementary income. Beyond requirements, companies often have leeway as to what benefits they can provide.  

Companies with emphasis on strong and diverse benefits often see better employee success. These companies have a higher likelihood of retention and low turnover rates. Diverse benefits can also increase employee outlook, and thus potentially increase productivity. 

When setting up a benefits package, take the time to abide by lawful requirements. Consider investing in extra benefits that might help your employees professionally and personally. 

1. Wellness Benefits 
You likely offer some or all your employees standard health insurance. 

You can help your employees further by offering additional health benefits. Extra benefits might include vision and dental coverage.  

Additionally, you might offer other perks that can help employees stay healthy. These might include gym memberships, onsite clinics and other services to keep employee well. 

2. Time Off Benefits 
Many employers offer a certain amount of paid time off work during a calendar year. Time off work often serves as a benefit that can increase employee productivity. Employers usually offer ample paid sick and vacation leave for employees' personal needs. 

3. Enrichment and Growth Opportunities 
Most employers have seen positive impacts from providing employees with growth assistance. By creating a culture where employees can continue to learn, companies might see a growth in their knowledge base. This increases the talent within the business. 

Enrichment opportunities come in a variety of forms. Some might conduct seminars at regular intervals to help employees learn new skills. Other companies even compensate employees for travel to annual workshops or seminars. 

Many employers have begun to explore supporting continuing education for employees. Companies might offer employees help on tuition if the employee goes back to school to pursue a relevant degree. 

Your company might enjoy increased worker productivity by providing extra benefits. The right employee benefits will help your team function better.
