Taking Care of Your Team: Employee Benefits Insurance for Texas Businesses
When you're running a business in Texas, your people are one of your biggest assets. A strong benefits package shows your employees that you care about their well-being, not just their work. It also helps your business stay competitive when it comes to hiring and keeping good people. At Rollo Insurance, we work with business owners across Texas to create benefits packages that support both the team and the bottom line.
What Is Employee Benefits Insurance?
Employee benefits insurance includes the different types of insurance coverage an employer offers to their team. It’s more than just a paycheck. These benefits become part of your employees’ full compensation and help cover important life needs like health care, financial protection, and planning for the future.
Why Do Employee Benefits Matter So Much?
Good benefits can make a big difference for both your business and the people who work for you.
For Your Business:
- Hiring and retention: In fast-moving markets like Austin’s tech scene or Houston’s energy sector, a solid benefits package helps you attract and keep talent.
- Team morale and performance: People who feel supported at work tend to stay longer, do better, and care more.
- Lower turnover: When employees are happy, they’re less likely to leave, which saves you money on hiring and training.
- Tax advantages: Many employee benefits come with potential tax savings for your business.
- Healthier workforce: Offering health coverage means your team can stay on top of their care, which can reduce missed days and keep everyone moving forward.
For Your Employees:
- Security: Insurance plans offer protection when life takes an unexpected turn.
- Peace of mind: Knowing they have coverage helps employees focus more at work and stress less at home.
- Better access to care: Health, dental, and vision plans encourage preventive care, which leads to better long-term health.
- Planning ahead: Retirement and disability benefits help employees prepare for the future.
- Work-life balance: Extras like flexible plans and voluntary add-ons support a more balanced lifestyle.
Types of Employee Benefits Insurance
- Core Benefits (What Most Employees Expect)
These are the essentials that form the base of your employee benefits plan.
- Group Health Insurance:
One of the most valued benefits, group health coverage helps your employees and their families pay for medical care. Group rates often make this more affordable than individual coverage. - Group Life Insurance:
This coverage gives an employee’s family financial support if the unexpected happens. Many employers offer basic coverage at no cost to the employee. - Group Dental and Vision Insurance:
Dental and vision plans help cover common costs like cleanings, fillings, eye exams, and glasses. These benefits are affordable and highly appreciated.
- Ancillary (Voluntary) Benefits
These are extra coverage options employees can choose to add on. They often don’t cost the employer anything, as employees typically pay for them themselves. Still, they add meaningful value to your overall package.
- Disability Insurance: Replaces a portion of an employee’s income if they can’t work due to illness or injury. Options include short-term and long-term coverage.
- Critical Illness Insurance: Pays out a lump sum if the employee is diagnosed with a serious condition like cancer or heart disease. The money can be used however they need it.
- Accident Insurance: Covers specific injuries and provides a cash benefit when an employee has a covered accident.
- Hospital Indemnity Insurance: Pays a set amount per day when an employee is hospitalized, helping with extra costs that add up quickly.
Other Options
Depending on your team’s needs, you can also offer voluntary plans like legal services, identity protection, pet insurance, and more.
