Employees want insurance from employers

 Employers are extending the insurance coverage of employees who are interested in such insurance products, according to the Unum Insight survey. In addition to group life insurance, companies also offer accident insurance (19%), health insurance (18%) and pension insurance (18%).
In companies that offer group life insurance, most often it is paid in full by the employee (46%) or the payment is shared with the employer (31%). The largest companies (over 250 employees) more often offer this benefit free of charge or co-finance the premium (53%).

Among additional benefits, apart from insurance, the most attractive in the eyes of employees are medical subscription (43%), additional paid leave (32%) and professional development opportunities (26%). Interestingly, the respondents also indicated free healthy meals at work (21%) and flexible working hours (20%).
