Earlier this year, OneDigital conducted an Employee Value-Perception Study to understand the evolving benefit needs and perceptions of an increasingly diverse, multigenerational workforce that takes into account their various life stages. 💡The TLDR: There’s a concerning gap between the perception and the reality of what employers are offering and the value their employees place in these offerings.

Employers think they’re nailing their benefits offerings and total rewards, but employees say there's room for improvement. Instead of trying to mirror competitors’ benefits packages or adhering to traditional approaches, it’s time to build a compelling benefits program based on a robust and empathetic understanding of what your employees need, want and value. Discover three actionable strategies to bridge the gap in benefits perception. https://hubs.ly/Q02H8l-w0 #betterbenefits #totalrewards #peaceofmind

It’s no secret that runaway healthcare costs are creating an affordability crisis for employers and employees alike. Health insurance premiums increased by a whopping 68% over the last decade. Prices in the economy as a whole inflated by about 30% during this same time period, which means that the cost of healthcare has grown at more than twice the rate of other goods and services, and much faster than employee wages or corporate profits. “In the last ten years, healthcare costs have grown more than twice as fast as the general rate of inflation. Costs are projected to continue increasing at a rapid clip for the foreseeable future,” says George Papagelis, OneDigital’s National Practice Leader of Captive Solutions. As a result, many employers are considering creative alternative health plan funding options, including group insurance captives, which can offer relief for employers who are fed up with endless premium increases and ballooning benefit budgets. Here are four of the most commonly asked questions, and some key considerations for employers ready to take the next step: https://hubs.ly/Q02H7V8H0 #costcontainment #risinghealthcarecosts #responsive #invested #groupcaptives

Despite recent claims that diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives are "done and over," the future of DEI remains promising even as it faces significant challenges. OneDigital Northeast HR Business Partner Thomasina Cole, MBA, SHRM-CP was featured in HR.com to explore the DEI&B landscape in the recently published article, “The Death Of DEI…Maybe Not.” While there are anti-DEI forces at play, those dedicated to ensuring inclusivity and diverse representation will not allow it to fade into obscurity. “The DEI discipline was born out of controversy. Contrary to recent accounts, the DEI work was started well before 2020, with its origins being traced back to the civil rights movement of the 1960s. The secret sauce to the changing face of DEI is a Human Resources department that successfully blends the established corporate goals with policy, initiatives, and programs to create a culture of inclusion and belonging.” Read the full feature here: https://hubs.ly/Q02H5gPh0 #DEIB #DiversityAndInclusion #EquityInTheWorkplace
