As we approach open enrollment season, it’s time for employers to think wisely about their workplace benefits selection. Taking an early approach to planning for the season will prove beneficial for your company and demonstrate to your employees that you are receptive to feedback which results in higher retention rates, lower absenteeism, improved productivity, and higher employee morale.

As employee benefits leader for your company, how can you best communicate with employees about open enrollment decisions? Answer: By treating open enrollment as an ongoing cycle rather than a traditional two-week period that happens once per year. By taking a strategic approach, you will be able to better engage with employees about the value of their employee benefits and broader employer-sponsored healthcare options.
