BENEFITS & FEATURES

A more personalized approach
that makes it easier for you.

Medical

The most common employee benefit that employers offer is medical or health coverage. This covers costs associated with doctors' appointments, regular checkups and basic medical procedures. It also covers emergency room visits and many types of surgical procedures.

Retirement Planning

Retirement options are available through most employers and often differ, depending on the company. Several common retirement options employers offer include 401(k) and IRA plans and simplified employee pension (SEP) plans. 403(b) retirement plans are often available for employees working at a nonprofit organization.

Family Leave

Along with extended leave, many employee benefits packages include a family leave plan. Family leave includes extended absence allowance, such as maternity and paternity leave, for when parents welcome their new babies. Depending on the employer, employees may take up to 12 weeks off of work to stay with family and their infants.

Vision

Vision insurance is usually a separate insurance plan in addition to employee health benefits. Eye exams, prescription lenses, ocular procedures and routine checkups for eye health are typical procedures that a vision plan covers. These kinds of plans typically cover checkups one a year.

Extended Leave

Extended leave is different from paid sick leave accrual, and it accounts for long periods away from work for medical reasons. Often, employers offer extended leave benefits that pay employees' salaries for time off over 15 consecutive days. Employers may require employees to provide notice of their extended absence along with documentation of any medical procedures they experienced during their time away.

Career Development

Many companies pay their employees to attend training and professional development. Additionally, it may be a requirement for new hires to attend new employee training, and employers pay for this. Another perk employers are likely to offer alongside paid training is paid professional development, where employees can attend mandatory developments without the worry of having to use their PTO or vacation days to attend the event.

Dental

Many employers provide dental coverage as part of their overall employee medical benefits, but sometimes dental insurance is a separate benefit. Depending on your workplace, you may have a complete benefits package including medical or dental or two separate insurance policies for your medical and dental plans. Dental plans generally cover routine dental exams, cleanings and X-rays and dental procedures like root canals, fillings and oral surgery.

Vacation, Sick & Paid Time Off

Most employers offer time off for number or reasons, allowing employees to schedule either vacation and sick, or personal days off from work. Typically, the amount of time accrues each pay period. The number of hours you can earn period can vary between employers and often depends on the length of time an employee has worked for their employer.

Disability

Disability benefits ensure an employee's salary in the event they sustain an injury or become ill and cannot work. Some employers may offer temporary disability insurance plans that provide income support to employees who have suffered an injury or illness outside of work. While disability benefits can vary between employers, many offer some form of short-term disability coverage in the event you're injured on the job.
