Medical Insurance
Employees often view health insurance as one of their most valuable benefits. In fact, a 2007 survey by the National Business Group on Health found that 75% of workers felt their health plan was their most important benefit. The Northwestern Mutual Financial Network, through its affiliate Strategic Employee Benefits Services, offers a variety of options including small group and medical savings accounts.
A 2008 study by the Kaiser Family Foundation found that 62% of small firms offered health benefits to workers. Health benefits increase productivity as well as aiding in recruitment and retention of your valuable human capital.
