Benefits Trend Report Podcast Series Ep. 3: Voluntary Benefits — More Essential Than Ever

In our latest US Benefits Trend Report podcast, Kim Bell, SVP, head of health and benefits, has a conversation with Kim Heald, NFP’s national practice leader for voluntary benefits. Kim Heald shares her perspectives on how the one-size-fits-all approach to benefits is increasingly ineffective, especially for multigenerational workforces, and the risks for employers if they don’t adapt by integrating supplemental health and lifestyle benefit options. The discussion also includes an overview of major challenges (70% of Americans are unable to save $1,000 to pay for unplanned medical expenses), how voluntary benefits can enhance employee financial stability and productivity, and an example of how voluntary benefits make a meaningful difference.
