9 Developing Your Total Rewards Strategy Key Questions to Ask: What are your business objectives? What is your compensation philosophy? What do your employees value? How do benefits fit into the total rewards strategy? 9 TriNet Webinar Series 2015 TriNet Group, Inc. All rights reserved. 9/16/2015
10 Using Your Total Rewards Strategy to Shape Benefits Selections and Funding What drives the benefits selections and funding? Business Objectives Compensation Philosophy Employee Needs & Wants What are short-term objectives for spending on health care and other benefits selections? What are long-term objectives? What can the business afford to spend? 10 TriNet Webinar Series 2015 TriNet Group, Inc. All rights reserved. 9/16/2015
11 Options for Funding Benefits 11 TriNet Webinar Series 2015 TriNet Group, Inc. All rights reserved. 9/16/2015
12 POLL Do you currently fund employee benefits? Yes No 12 TriNet Webinar Series 2015 TriNet Group, Inc. All rights reserved. 9/16/2015
13 Designing the Appropriate Strategy Many factors impact how your company should fund its benefits selections, including considerations around cost and culture. Cost Do you need to limit your company s costs due to budget constraints or need to control expenses? Do you want to be cost-conscious, but also limit employee out-of-pocket costs? Culture Are benefits a key competitive differentiator in attracting and retaining top talent? Do you see benefits funding as a significant component to your total rewards strategy? Do you value employees, but need a structured, predictable formula? 13 TriNet Webinar Series 2015 TriNet Group, Inc. All rights reserved. 9/16/2015
14 Designing the Appropriate Strategy Another factor to consider is the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Small Employer (under 50 full time equivalent employees) Cannot provide pre-tax or post-tax cash to employee to purchase individual coverage Medical plans/packages must provide minimum essential coverage Large Employer (50+ full time equivalent employees) Medical plans/packages must > Provide minimum essential coverage > Meet actuarial value > Meet one affordability safe harbor > Offered to 70% (95% in 2016) of full time employees and eligible dependent children 14 TriNet Webinar Series 2015 TriNet Group, Inc. All rights reserved. 9/16/2015
15 Funding Benefits Four common methods to fund benefits: Percentage Contribution Company Fixed-Dollar Contribution Employee Fixed-Dollar Contribution Benefits Supplement Funding 15 TriNet Webinar Series 2015 TriNet Group, Inc. All rights reserved. 9/16/2015
16 Percentage Contribution Company funds a set percentage of the premium with employees responsible for the remaining percentage Example: Company pays 90% of employee-only level of coverage, 50% of employee+ levels of coverage Very popular funding strategy for companies Companies who elect this strategy usually cap their total contribution To a specific plan (if more than one plan is offered) To a budgeted amount, for example $400 for employee-only, $750 for employee+ levels of coverage Employees who choose a less expensive plan pay less, but those who choose a more costly plan receive a larger dollaramount subsidy (up to cap amount, if set) 16 TriNet Webinar Series 2015 TriNet Group, Inc. All rights reserved. 9/16/2015
17 Company Fixed-Dollar Contribution Companies elect to contribute a flat amount for each employee s coverage, no matter which plan is chosen Companies on a fixed benefits budget can more easily identify maximum potential health care expense Provides equal company subsidy per employee no matter which plan is chosen Company dollar amount contributed needs to be evaluated each year at renewal to ensure alignment with plan premiums Employees can reduce their cost by selecting a lower-cost plan 17 TriNet Webinar Series 2015 TriNet Group, Inc. All rights reserved. 9/16/2015
18 Employee Fixed-Dollar Contribution Company sets a dollar amount that employees will pay for coverage Easy for employees to understand how much their benefits elections will cost, but shields them from true cost of coverage No incentive for employees to select lower-cost plan, therefore it may encourage employees to select more robust medical plan Harder for companies to predict their overall benefits spend before employees elect coverage This strategy is rarely used given the current healthcare climate 18 TriNet Webinar Series 2015 TriNet Group, Inc. All rights reserved. 9/16/2015
19 Benefits Supplement Funding Company provides a pool of money to employees to be spent on medical, dental, and vision coverage Encourages employees to select benefits wisely Company needs only to choose one supplement amount to be applied to health care benefits Any excess subsidy paid to the employee is considered taxable 19 TriNet Webinar Series 2015 TriNet Group, Inc. All rights reserved. 9/16/2015
20 Which Funding Method is Right for you? Do you want to Establish a simple strategy that adjusts for trend each year? Limit client costs? Limit WSE costs? Choose benefits selections that are generous and flexible? Move to a defined contribution strategy? Percentage Contribution Strategy Company Fixed-Dollar Contribution Strategy Employee Fixed-Dollar Contribution Strategy Benefits Supplement Strategy* Adjust amount each year for trend Adjust amount each year for trend Adjust amount each year for trend Set caps to limit costs Fund a higher percentage of cost of coverage Fund a higher percentage of cost of coverage Fund lower amount that limits cost Fund higher amount Fund higher amount that gives WSEs a chance to use funds toward TriNet s dental and vision coverage 20 TriNet Webinar Series 2015 TriNet Group, Inc. All rights reserved. 9/16/2015
21 POLL Which benefits funding method is right for you? Percentage Contribution Company Fixed-Dollar Contribution Employee Fixed-Dollar Contribution Benefits Supplement Funding 21 TriNet Webinar Series 2015 TriNet Group, Inc. All rights reserved. 9/16/2015
