5. Voluntary Benefits
WHY?
“82% of employees with voluntary benefits report being
satisfied vs. 52% without voluntary”*
“Voluntary is no longer a quaint sideline; it has become one
of the largest and fastest growing segments of the benefits
business.”**
*Anthem BCBS and Taylor Nelson Sofres, “Employees Give High Priority To Voluntary Benefits,” Oct 10, 2010
**Gil Lowerre, Eastbridge Consulting January 2011 Ed. – Benefits Selling Magazine

6. WHY Legal?
The Bottom Line…
Employees and their families face a broad array of legal issues
daily but rarely seek out help due to COST, confusion & hassle
of dealing with the legal system*
*The Legal Needs of American Families, 2012 research study, Decision Analyst, Inc.

7. Unique Advantages
Reduce absenteeism
Employees with legal problems usually:
• Have an absenteeism rate five times higher than average
• Use their medical benefits four times more than average
• Use sick leave twice as often as the average employee
• Experience a substantial reduction in their productivity
*LSK Associates Study

8. Unique Advantages
Increase Productivity
In a recent study, 91% of respondents said they would seek
the help of a lawyer for even the most trivial issue if their
services were easier to access and more affordable*
ACCESS will lead to less distractions at work and POSITIVE
effects on your employee’s performance
*The Legal Needs of American Families, 2012 research study, Decision Analyst, Inc.

9. Unique Advantages
Help reduce your employee’s stress
Stressed out employees cost the Canadian industry more than
$30 billion annually in lost hours due to absenteeism, reduced
productivity and workers’ compensation benefits*
