Increasingly, part-timers are taking on important roles in our prganizations. Whether they are soon-to-retire veterans or new-to-the-workforce grads hoping to get to fulltime, they all want benefits. Where should you draw the line on who gets benefits and what they get? Today’s survey will help you figure it out.
For years, BLR® has surveyed HR and benefits professionals to see what benefits they are actually offering. This year, we have expanded our survey program by conducting a series of brief, targeted benefits surveys.
Today’s Survey Topic: Benefits for Part-Time Employees
Here are some of the tricky issues we’re going to probe:
- How many hours per week must an employee work to be eligible for benefits?
- Which benefits are offered to part-timers? (Holidays, vacation, sick, health insurance, life insurance, 401(k), retirement, bonus/incentive, paid family leave?)
- What percentage of workforce is "part-time"?
- Has the percentage changed in the past two years?
- Does your company allow job sharing?
- And other part-time benefits questions
Take this brief survey, and see how your existing practices and future plans stack up against those of the country’s most successful companies. The survey takes only a few minutes to complete, and it will help you stay on top of your industry and keep your organization competitive.
