Strengthen Your Employee Benefits Program With Group Life Insurance
Life insurance is a critical part of a comprehensive employee benefits package that helps support employees’ financial wellness. After all, a path toward better financial independence involves more than just building savings. Employees need to protect the things that are valuable to them. And at the top of that list are family and loved ones. If something were to happen, life insurance can help them manage expenses – from the everyday bills to larger obligations like mortgages, car payments and loans. Like other working Americans, your employees count on life insurance through work as their main option:
- For the first time in history, more Americans are covered by employment-based group life insurance than individual life insurance.
- 57% of those with life insurance obtain it exclusively from their workplace.
More local employers choose Rankin & Rankin to provide their employees’ life coverage than any other carrier. Why? Because we help employers offer a life insurance program that sets their employees on a path toward better financial wellness, while looking out for the bottom line.
