New Year, New Benefits Experience

Lessons From Gen Z on Engaging a Multi-Generational Workforce - Seite 2

For example, millennials navigating parenthood for the first time may be seeking opportunities to learn about childcare or fertility benefits, while Gen X employees stepping into the role of ‘caretaker’ for aging parents may be looking for benefits that can help them care for their loved ones in need of elder care.

Achieving Business Objectives Through Benefits Engagement and Utilization

For employers, approaching benefits strategies with a focus on continuous education and increased utilization throughout the year offers a return on investment – beyond yielding a more satisfied workforce, MetLife data shows this would make one in two employees feel more cared for.²

“Employee care has a tangible impact on employee wellbeing, happiness, and overall satisfaction, and, ultimately, organizational performance. Thus, as the workforce evolves, so too must the way employers engage and demonstrate care for their employees,” Madden continued. “Delivering timely, approachable communication and resources is critical to ensuring each generation in today’s workforce understands how to elect and use the benefits that are right for them year-round.”
