Wiegers Financial & Benefits is one of Saskatchewan’s largest private financial planning and group benefits consulting firms. More than ever, employees are choosing employers who care. A custom-designed Group Life and Health benefits plan that helps look after your employees will help make you irresistible to the talent your business needs to thrive. How can you know, though, that your plan is going the distance? In our latest Benefits news, we speak to the critical role that benefits benchmarking plays.
Benefits benchmarking is more important now than ever before. In today’s competitive business landscape, standing out as an employer isn’t just about offering a good salary. More than that, it’s about providing a comprehensive and competitive benefits package that reflects the needs of your team while aligning with industry standards. This is where benefits benchmarking comes in—a critical tool for employers who are committed to the kind of systemic rewards program that draws the best talent to your business and motivates them to stay.
Wiegers Financial & Benefits now offers one of the best benefits benchmarking reports available in Canada, powered by CloudAdvisors. These cutting-edge reports allow employers to gain impactful insights into how their benefit plans compare to others in their industry and region. Here’s why this matters so much.
Understanding the Importance of Benefits Benchmarking
At it’s core, benefits benchmarking is the process of comparing your organization’s benefits plan against others in your sector and geographical area. This data-driven approach provides clear, actionable insights that help you understand where your plan excels and where it might fall short.
For employers, benefits benchmarking offers several key advantages:
Stay Competitive: In a tight labor market, top talent often chooses employers based on the strength of their benefits package. Benchmarking helps you ensure your offerings are not only competitive but also stand out in your industry.
Identify Gaps:A benchmarking report highlights areas where your benefits may be lacking, such as inadequate mental health support, insufficient retirement contributions, or limited flexibility in health spending accounts. Knowing these gaps allows you to address them proactively.
Cost Efficiency:Understanding how your benefits plan stacks up can reveal areas where you may be overspending on offerings that aren’t valued by employees. Reallocating resources to high-impact benefits can maximize your investment.
Align with Employee Expectations: Today’s workforce values benefits that reflect their evolving needs. These benefits can include wellness programs, flexible work arrangements, and comprehensive family support. Benefits benchmarking ensures your plan aligns with what matters most to employees in your sector.
