Instructions
Using your current or past organization’s benefits package, prepare a chart of all benefits offered (even those that you may not be currently enrolled). If you aren’t currently employed, contact the HR department of a local healthcare provider and request a listing of their benefits offering. In lieu of contacting the HR department, benefits are often listed in the career section of the organization’s website. Your chart should include:
Each benefit
those required by law
those provided to employees where enrollment is mandatory
those provided to employees where enrollment is voluntary
The eligibility for each benefit
The cost per employee for each benefit
The level of employee participation in the cost (if any)
The organization’s expense as a percentage of payroll
An example of the chart is below:
Benefit Name
Why provided (law, competition, etc.)
Enrollment mandatory / voluntary
Who is eligible
Total cost per employee
Cost sharing % with employee
Organization cost as a % of payroll
