Adding Voluntary Benefits

Case Study: Adding Voluntary Benefits

Industry: Construction & Trades
Employees: 90
Problem: The company offered a Minimum Essential Coverage (MEC) plan but lacked a credible strategy for attracting and retaining talent. Their workforce was disengaged, and turnover remained high. They needed to meet ACA compliance as an ALE, but also improve perceived value without raising base plan costs.
Result: By layering in targeted voluntary benefits and adjusting the base plan structure to meet Minimum Value (MV) standards, we improved compliance and employee satisfaction. The company now reports improved retention metrics and better participation—without increasing employer contributions.
Compliance improved, turnover reduced, benefits perception elevated.
