Custom Employer/
Employee Communications

Understanding the complexity of employee benefits plans is a challenge even for experienced benefits managers. Employers must keep abreast of constantly changing trends, laws, and other regulations. Meanwhile, employees need to fully understand their benefits to be wise consumers and understand the value of their “hidden paycheck.” Unfortunately, most employers have limited resources in this area.

The EKA Planning Services team will educate you on important issues while helping you tackle your mounting employee communication challenges. With strategic planning and thorough understanding of your communication objectives, we provide custom communication materials that will help your employees understand their plans and the issues influencing your benefits decisions.

Benefits Announcements & Educational Material

You will have access to articles, flyers, payroll stuffers, posters and emails used to announce benefit changes, introduce new benefits or plans, and help employees understand and use certain benefits.

Benefit Statements

Our offerings include benefit statement items such as a summary of an employee’s benefits package, showing overall compensation including salary and benefits. Employees are more likely to appreciate their benefits packages if they truly understand all that is provided to them—we can help you give employees a visual that shows the portion of their total compensation that is employee benefits.

Consumer Directed Health Care (CDHC)

We provide everything you need, including letters, flyers, articles, payroll stuffers, posters, and emails to help support your CDHC campaigns, including educational and promotional materials for you and your employees. Whether you are implementing an HSA or HRA, or just want to promote consumerism among employees, we can provide resources.

Plus, we offer a quarterly Benefits Bulletin newsletter, a quarterly pharmacy benefits newsletter and a monthly one-page Benefits Buzz newsletter highlighting timely HR and benefit news.
