Determining Benefits

Benefits

are things of value other than compensation that the organization provides to

its workers. (Benefits are sometimes called indirect compensation.) The average company

spends an amount equal to more than one-third of its cash payroll on employee benefits.

Thus, an average employee who is paid, say, $30,000 per year averages a bit over $10,000

more per year in benefits. Benefits come in several forms. Pay for time not worked

includes sick leave, vacation, holidays, and unemployment compensation. Insurance

benefits often include life and health insurance for employees and their dependents.

Workers’ compensation is a legally required insurance benefit that provides medical

care and disability income for employees injured on the job. Social Security is a govern-

ment pension plan to which both employers and employees contribute. Many employers

also provide a private pension plan to which they and their employees contribute.

Employee service benefits include extras such as tuition reimbursement and recreational

opportunities.

Some organizations have instituted cafeteria benefit plans, whereby basic coverage is

provided for all employees but employees are then allowed to choose which additional

benefits they want (up to a cost limit based on salary). An employee with five children

might choose enhanced medical and dental coverage for dependents, a single employee

might prefer more vacation time, and an older employee might elect increased pension

benefits. Flexible systems are expected to encourage people to stay in the organization

and even help the company attract new employees.

In response to economic pressures, some firms have reduced employee benefits in the



last few years. In 2002, for example, 17 percent of employees in the United States with

employer health-care coverage saw their benefits cut; the 2008–2009 recession led to fur-

ther reductions. Some employers have also reduced their contributions to employee

retirement plans, cut the amount of annual leave they offer to employees, or both.

33

For instance, during the recession, 16 major companies announced that they would



reduce or eliminate employer contributions to employee retirement plans. In recent

years, several others followed suit. Among these were Wells Fargo, Anheuser-Busch,
