Employee Benefits | Voluntary Benefits

Voluntary employee benefit plans offer an important option for many small businesses. They differ from traditional group plans in two key areas: contributions and participation requirements.

Unlike traditional group benefits where an employer will pay some portion of the premium, voluntary plans are sponsored by the employer with the premium paid entirely by the employee through payroll deduction. And, while traditional group benefits require high levels of employee participation, voluntary programs generally require only 20% of the eligible employees to be enrolled. Some carriers have no participation requirement at all. Additionally, employees pay their premiums (for certain products) on a pre-tax basis through an IRS approved "Section 125" plan. This means tax savings for the employee and the employer.

The Fleischer Jacobs Group’s voluntary benefit program allows business owners to offer employees an array of benefit choices without impacting the overall benefits budget. We’re here to help you choose the program that’s right for your company and your employees.
