Employee Benefits

The SHRM Employee Benefits Survey returns with new insights for 2023.

Building Retirement Readiness in the Workforce

On the tail end of a pandemic and amid rising medical costs, health care remains the most important benefit type that employers feel they can offer to their workforce. Facing reminders of the difficulties during the COVID-19 pandemic, organizations continue demonstrating caution and concern for employees’ well-being. This is likely to continue for the foreseeable future.

Health insurance is not employers’ only concern, however, as differentiation in other health benefits may come with added perks to boost recruitment and retention efforts. The prevalence of health savings accounts (HSAs) has reached a historic high. Meanwhile, employers are paying close attention to various reproductive benefits their employees may value. On the wellness side, organizations are starting to reinstate lifestyle perks and further encourage healthy habits, with data showing a slight rebound from the pandemic-recovery dip in 2022.
