“Your employee benefits must attract and retain the best talent while aligning with your company culture.”
On today’s Coachcast we discuss employee benefits and fitting with current times.
What:
We want to review the sum of all the benefits you employees receive in exchange for giving you their time.
The complete benefits employees receive includes more than just healthcare. You need to look beyond the traditional benefits in take an innovative approach to your benefits packages.
Why:
- As Elite Contractors we need to attract and retain the best talent that we can afford
- We want happy people working in an environment that allows them to thrive
- We want benefit packages that fit with our current lifestyles and our company culture
How:
- Understand benefits are more than just healthcare and vacation, look at other areas too.
- You can offer a lot of perks to employees without breaking the bank.
- Align your benefits with your company culture
- Example: If you are creating a company culture around a caring and family oriented business then not allowing an employee to have some flexible time to take care of their own family would be counter-productive
- Understand that people make trade-offs when they decide to work for your company and embrace the things your employees value
Take the time to review your benefits and make the necessary changes to keep your benefits aligned with your culture and applicable to the times we live in.
Take-Action Items:
-
Review your current benefits and check against your culture
-
Survey your employees to see what is important
-
Establish some policies and benefits that fit with today’s environment
