Once you have accurately diagnosed your employee benefit symptoms, identified problems you can discover opportunities and implement benefit solutions.
| Symptom | Potential Problem | Potential Opportunity |
|---|---|---|
| It's difficult to recruit good workers | The lack of a reasonable benefit plan makes it hard to compete for the best recruits | Adjust your benefit plan to meet the minimum expectations of target recruits |
| Customer service, quality and efficiency levels suffer when experienced staff quit | The best employees with the most experience are quitting | Target compensation and benefits to increase based on performance and seniority |
| It's hard to recruit good seasonal employees | Employees don't commit until the last minute in case they get a better offer from a competitor | At the end of the season, offer basic benefits to the best workers who sign contracts for the next season |
| Health benefit costs increase faster than wages | Cost components (claims, markup, inflation) are not controlled | Adjust the risk sharing of your benefit plan and manage suppliers |
