Life Insurance: A basic benefit provided by most employers, life insurance coverage ranges from a flat $10,000 for all employees to 5 different classes combining employer/employee paid with supplemental coverage for family members.

Disability Insurance: Next to the costs of health insurance, the costs of lost work time due to an extended sickness or disability can have a major impact on both the employer and the employee. The proper design of your disability benefits program to include short term and long term disabilities should focus on rehabilitation and return to work. There are many alternatives to designing a plan that will meet the needs of all levels of employees.

Long Term Care: Almost one quarter of U.S. Households - 22.4 million families - are providing informal care for an aging relative. Long Term Care insurance can provide financial assistance with the cost of this care and thereby protect the assets of policyholders. This coverage has been available in the individual market for at least the past twenty years but is now available at group rates. BRG can assist you in evaluating the best way to provide your employees with the opportunity to purchase this coverage.

Employee Assistance Programs: How employees handle the many challenges in their lives can affect their stress level, self esteem, relationships, health and job performance.

The smoker who reduces or ceases to smoke is not the only winner. Employers will save labor costs associated with reduction in absenteeism and utilization of health benefits, eliminate "downtime" of the extended smoke-breaks, and improve morale among smokers and non-smokers.
