Benefits are no longer a perk — they’re an expectation.
But for many organizations, they’ve also become one of the largest and fastest-growing expenses on the balance sheet.
The real challenge isn’t just controlling costs. It’s figuring out how to lower benefit spend without degrading the employee experience — and then intentionally reinvesting those savings to improve retention, engagement, and culture.
Let’s solve for both ends of the problem.
Watch a replay of our webinar as we break down not only how to lower your group benefits costs – but also the best ways to reinvest the savings to increase employee retention.
Business owners and executives
CFOs who are actively involved in cost reduction strategies
HR directors & HR leaders
Anyone responsible for benefits strategy or employee retention
In this one-hour session, we break benefits into two sides of the equation — expected vs. unexpected — and show how the best organizations use that framework to control costs and strengthen their teams. You’ll walk away with insights on how to:
Understand why benefits are no longer perceived as a “benefit” by employees
Identify where you can control your costs and create impactful, long-term savings
Reduce costs on the expected side of benefits (medical, funding models, plan design, education and risk strategies)
Reallocate savings toward the unexpected side — the areas employees actually remember and value
Use benefits strategy as a lever for retention, not just compliance
