Benefits enrollment solutions

Now more than ever, workplace benefits play an important role in helping to protect employee finances. But employee benefits only have value if employees understand how to use them. You can make an impact when you make a plan to help ensure employees can make informed choices based on their needs.

Guardian works with you to develop an active enrollment strategy to meet your needs and help employees get the most value from their benefits.

Help provide clarity and confidence with enrollment decisions

When employees are engaged and educated on their benefits, it can lead to a positive enrollment experience and contribute to greater workforce loyalty. Developing an enrollment strategy can help overcome some of the common challenges employees face.

  • The average employee only spends 20 minutes reviewing non-medical benefits.1

  • 45% of employees are overwhelmed by their options, so they auto-enroll in prior benefits.1

  • Only 22% of employees report being very confident in their most recent benefit selection.1

Employers who have an enrollment strategy can see employee participation increase by more than 25%.² Learn how.

When it comes to providing insurance benefits and communicating with employees, it shouldn’t be a one-size-fits-all approach. Younger workers in particular need a targeted approach to learning about and enrolling in their benefits, especially once they turn 26 and aren’t eligible for their parents’ plans.
