The Problem Most Owners Never Add Up

What is turnover actually costing you?

Losing good people doesn’t show up as a line item — it hides in overtime, training, and lost productivity. But the bill is real, and it’s bigger than most leaders think.

$45,236

Average cost to replace one employee in 2026 — recruiting, onboarding, training, lost productivity, and management time.

24%

Of employees left or considered leaving a job over weak benefits in 2025 — nearly double the 15% seen in 2024.

Up to 50%

Reduction in workers’ comp claims reported by employers who added voluntary accident & disability coverage.

Here’s the part that changes the math: closing this gap doesn’t require a bigger payroll budget. A properly structured voluntary benefits program costs the employer nothing — and it’s one of the most direct levers you have on retention and workers’ comp exposure.

What a Benefits Program Delivers to You

Results you can’t ignore.

The research is clear. A properly structured benefits program moves the needle on the things that actually affect your bottom line.

42%

Fewer workers’ comp claims

Companies offering personal accident coverage saw workers’ comp claims decline. Employees with personal accident policies have less incentive to misreport off-the-job injuries.

90%

Retain the people you’ve invested in

90% of employees rank benefits #2 behind pay when evaluating a job. A stronger package means fewer good techs walking out the door for greener pastures.

74%

Attract higher-quality candidates

74% of employees who changed jobs cited benefits as a key factor in their decision. A comprehensive plan sets your offer apart from competitors who lead with pay alone.

39%

Don’t understand what they’re already offered

A benefit nobody understands doesn’t retain anybody. That’s why enrollment isn’t a login screen here — every employee sits down with us, one-on-one, until it makes sense.

Zero cost to you

No cost — unless you want to contribute

Employees fund their own coverage through payroll deduction. Your cost to make this available to your team: zero. Employer contribution is always optional.

Coverage That Fits Every Life Stage and Budget
