The Simple Benefit That Helps Contractors Keep Good Crews

One accident can change everything for a contractor, an employee, and their family. In this episode of The Builder’s Edge, we talk with Yvette Kahn about how contractors can protect their crews with affordable supplemental insurance options that help cover out-of-pocket costs, accidents, illness, short-term disability, and the financial gaps traditional health insurance and workers’ comp may not fully solve. If you own a construction company, painting business, moving company, remodeling company, or any trade-based business, this conversation is for you. Hiring good workers is hard, but keeping them is even harder when employees do not feel protected or supported. Yvette explains how benefits like accident insurance, cancer coverage, critical care, and short-term disability can help contractors build stronger teams, improve employee retention, reduce stress after injuries, and create a culture where workers feel valued. You will hear how supplemental insurance works, why it can be surprisingly affordable, how it pays employees directly, and why small contractors with as few as three employees may be able to offer better protection without adding heavy overhead. In this episode, you’ll learn:  → How supplemental insurance helps contractors close the financial gap when employees get hurt on or off the job → Why workers’ comp alone may not be enough to protect your crew or your business → How offering benefits can help attract better employees, improve retention, and show your team that you care about their future → How accident plans, cancer plans, critical care coverage, and short-term disability can support workers when life happens Learn more about Deanna Lucas through the following links: AI Visibility Scorecard Builders Visibility Blueprint DND Website DND Youtube Email Template for 5 Star Reviews  Facebook Facebook Group LinkedIn Learn more about your ad choices.
