HOST

Good morning and welcome to the CORTBURG SPEAKS RETIREMENT audio podcast.   

On this week’s audio podcast, I share 5 trends that will define employee benefits in 2023 and how they will evolve the employee benefits landscape for the future workforce.

Employee benefits are an important part of any company's strategy to attract and retain top talent. As the workforce continues to evolve, employee benefit trends are also changing to meet the needs of employees. Here are five trends that will define employee benefits in 2023:

1.       Mental Health Support: Mental health is becoming an increasingly important issue for employees, with many people experiencing stress and burnout from the demands of work and personal life. In response, more companies are offering mental health support as part of their employee benefits package. This can include access to counseling and therapy services, as well as employee assistance programs (EAPs) that provide confidential support for a wide range of personal and work-related issues.

2.       Health and Wellness Programs: With a growing emphasis on preventative care, companies are increasingly offering health and wellness programs as part of their employee benefits. These programs can include things like gym memberships, health screenings, and nutrition education. By promoting healthy habits, companies hope to reduce healthcare costs and improve employee productivity.

3.       Flexible Work Arrangements: Remote work has become increasingly popular in recent years, and this trend is likely to continue. Companies are recognizing the benefits of flexible work arrangements, including increased employee satisfaction and productivity, as well as reduced absenteeism. In 2023, more companies will offer telecommuting and flexible schedules as part of their employee benefits packages.

4.       Employee Development and Training: With the fast-paced nature of the modern workforce, companies are recognizing the importance of investing in employee development and training. Many companies are now offering professional development opportunities as part of their employee benefits package, such as tuition reimbursement and training programs. This allows employees to improve their skills and advance their careers, which in turn benefits the company.

5.       Voluntary Benefits: Voluntary benefits are employee benefits that employees can opt into at their own expense. These benefits can include things like life insurance, long-term disability coverage, and accident insurance. As companies look to provide more comprehensive benefits packages, voluntary benefits will become increasingly popular in 2023. This allows employees to tailor their benefits package to their own specific needs and preferences, rather than being limited to a one-size-fits-all package.

Employee benefits will continue to play an important role in attracting and retaining top talent in 2023. Companies will continue to offer mental health support, health and wellness programs, flexible work arrangements, employee development and training, and voluntary benefits. 

These benefits will help companies to improve employee productivity, reduce healthcare costs, and promote a positive work-life balance. As the workforce continues to evolve, it will be important for companies to stay up-to-date on the latest employee benefit trends in order to attract and retain top talent.
