Enhanced Benefits Benchmarking Tool: Includes in-depth data to help you measure how your benefit objectives, strategies and offerings - and your employees' attitudes toward benefits - stack against your competitors.  In today's increasingly diverse labor market, competitive employee benefits are playing a critical role in corporate strategy.
 
According to the 6th annual MetLife study of employee benefits trends, many US workers are ready to take a more proactive role in planning for their financial future.   They are looking to the workplace for benefits that will help them build their financial safety net.
 
Employers that benchmark, gain the insights they need to make informed strategic decisions.  They can quickly identify industry trends and then be in a position to compare and contrast benefit offerings, objectivess and employee needs and attitudes against those of similar companies and employee populations.  
 
How to use the tool:
Step 1: Choose the benefits topics you are interested in: 
        *  Benefits Objectives, Strategies and Offerings
        *  Benefits Communications & Decision Making
        *  Employee Retention and Loyalty Goals
        *  Retirement and Aging Workforce
        *  Health & Wellness
 
Step 2: Choose all the topics related to a trend, or customize your analysis by choosing individual topics within each group.
 
Step 3: Choose your benchmark criteria
Select employer criteria such as region, industry, company type, company size, employee characteristics such as lifestyle stage or household income.
 
Step 4: Submit your criteria to Jolles Insurance
Within 48 hours, you will be provided with a personalized benchmark anaylsis.
 
Effective Surveys:
To maximize the value of benchmarking, we review existing benefits programs and survey employees to discover their benefits priorities before using the tool.  This preliminary research can help identify broad themes to explore.
 
Strategic Benefit Planning is not effective without a clear understanding of employer goals and objectives and employee needs.   We help you to understand your current employee benefit position.   With our effective employer employee surveys, we are then in a position to help you set balanced specific goals that are cost effective for the employer and most beneficial for your employees.
 
Employee Survey: Designed to help us (and employer) determine what benefits and plan designs employees want and need.  This is a tool to help employers make strategic decisions based on real data.
 
Many employers do not use surveys because they believe that surveys imply that employees have a vote in decisions regarding benefits.  We design surveys to gain insight to what employees want and need.  We properly communicate the purpose of the survey so that employees understand that it is a tool to help management provide a benefit package that combines both the needs of the employer and the employees collectively.
 
Employer Survey: Designed to determine the current benefit package, employer objectives and the employer and management thinking regarding core, ancillary and voluntary benefits currently in place.
