Employee Benefits Communications
Only 21 percent of employers think their employees have a good understanding of their benefits.
2009 Colonial Life Survey
For years, companies have struggled to improve workforce understanding, utilization and appreciation of benefits and compensation programs. Historically, employers have depended on their benefits vendors to solve this problem. As a result, many employees must access over a dozen vendor sites and page through thick handbooks, lengthy brochures and text-heavy web pages to get what they need. As benefits continue to become more complex, so too does the list of vendors and the reading required to make decisions. In light of these trends, traditional approaches to educating employees on their benefits will continue to produce poor and likely declining results.

Open Enrollment and New Hire Training Modules
If you're like many companies, you devote significant resources to training new hires and readying employees for open enrollment - weekly new hire orientations, open enrollment seminars, benefits handbooks, brochures and mailers are just some of the examples of the investments in staff time and dollars required to carry out these processes.
The Benefits Learning Center modules streamline and automate resource intensive processes to provide a much more effective benefits education solution. These offerings provide a central online destination for rich and engaging multimedia benefits education accessible by your distributed workforce and their families.
Open Enrollment Module
The Open Enrollment module comes with a multimedia presentation that provides a brief overview of benefits changes for the upcoming plan year. Multimedia provides an ideal forum for delivering delicate news such as cuts to benefits programs. Subsequently, employees can personalize their learning experience by accessing lessons on specific topics of interest, track their progress with a customized checklist and link to enrollment resources.
