Surveys show employee benefits cost 30% to 40% of payroll for the average employee.  However, most employees have little appreciation of the costs associated with their benefits or little knowledge of the specific benefit payable in the event of their sickness, death, or retirement.  It may not be lack of gratitude, but lack of knowledge.  Most employees are simply unaware of the total cost of their employee benefit package and would be stunned to realize that the average employer pays over 38% of their monthly salary toward medical, dental, life insurance, savings programs and other employee benefits. At Conrad Siegel Actuaries, our Comprehensive Benefit Statement clearly communicates the cost and value of your company's benefits and details the "hidden paycheck" that you provide your staff in an understandable, easy-to-read manner.
