FAQs about Employee Benefits
Providing employee benefits takes careful balance between your company’s budgetary needs and the level of care you want to provide to your employees. Achieving that balance can be difficult, but is made easier by a more thorough understanding of your options. Keep reading to get answers to frequently asked questions about employee benefits. If you still have questions, contact us to speak to one of our advisors.
Do I need to offer employee benefits?
Technically, no law requires employers to offer benefits to their employees. However, the Affordable Care Act does impose penalties on employers with 50 or more full-time employees who do not provide health insurance to at least 95% of their workers. If you have at least 50 employees, it is often more affordable to provide the benefits than to pay the annual fee to the government.
Even if you have fewer than 50 employees, providing employee benefits can help you be a more attractive option to potential workers. In today’s job market, it’s generally expected that an employer will at least offer some form of group health insurance, and offering more benefits in addition to this can help you to stand out to top candidates.
