The corporate landscape is changing.  HR departments are being asked to absorb more responsibilities.  The financial success of a company is impacted by the efficiency of time allocated to administration of benefits, the economy of communicating and tracking employee elections and the employee satisfaction with the process that creates the other two.  

Employee Self Service tools are increasing in popularity as a solution to many of these newly created challenges.  Recent studies cite the average corporate cost to manually enroll an employee for benefits at $30.06, compared to a self service on-line enrollment system average corporate cost of $4.59.  That represents an 85% savings, which can tremendously impact your bottom line! 

Giving your employees the ability to go on-line 24/7 to review their benefit options, download specific information and make enrollment elections is a welcome convenience to most employees. Your company also benefits by reducing the percentage of staff time required administratively for communicating and enrolling employees for company sponsored benefits. 

Although large corporations have traditionally been the leaders embracing web technology and on-line solutions, that demographic has been changing. Today outsourcing options provide employers of every size the benefit of the latest technology and staff efficiencies at a very affordable cost.  Selecting a system that integrates with payroll and other platforms can provide a higher level of management information, reduce traditional employee intervention and generate an increased return on investment (ROI).
