Hi all,Are you aware of any innovative benefit customization options or flexible packages your company offers or any other firm,allowing employees to personalize their benefits based on individual circumstances or life stages?
I foresee this as a future of employee benefits and wondering if any firm is already doing it?

We do not offered customization really. They can choose from a battery of pre-built options, but not customize.


Customization sounds great but is a nightmare to program an employer enrollment system to support, not to mention the difficulty of securing rates from insurance groups.

Lastly, customization poses an education challenge. It is increases the complexity of supporting participants at the employer-level. Not many HR shops have the bandwidth to support that much education need.

What do you mean by customization? A company I worked for (as far as I understand it) paid a blanket rate for employee coverage and the employees could pick which programs they paid for out of their check. I used a PPO health insurance, vision, and dental. I had another coworker choose an HMO, with OON coverage, and a life insurance package + what I mentioned.

Hello fishes. Need some insurance advice.
My parents are dependent on me. My 62 yo dad and 57yo mom do some part time work and makes $1000/mon.

I tried asking this in my own bowl with no responses, so seeing if other consultants have run into this situation. I’m on parental leave, I got an offer for another firm, great opportunity and pay. How does one go about a resignation mid-leave when you would start the new job before the leave ends? Two weeks notice or just say I am not returning effective the day of the new job? Any things to consider besides potentially repaying the employer healthcare premium?
