Voluntary Benefits
What are Voluntary Benefits?
Voluntary benefits are a variety of insurance policies including life insurance, disability, theft protection, financial consulting, and even legal services provided to you by your employer. However, a certain amount of money is deducted from your paycheck in order to cover these policies. Voluntary benefits are provided to most employees as a form of incentive or as a job perk depending on their industry.
Unlike health insurance, employers are mandated to provide these types of benefits. When choosing which type of voluntary benefits are for you, it’s important to consider which factors matter most. At Sure Trust, our team of brokers and insurance advisors will sit with you in order to help you make an informed decision.
