Group Voluntary Products

Voluntary products are 100 percent employee-paid coverages, so the cost to the employer is only a minimal internal administrative expense. Employees pay for the chosen coverage(s) through payroll deductions. Voluntary LTD, STD, Life, Vision and Dental plans are available.

The plans we represent are supported by a complete package of marketing, enrollment, and administrative support. Personalized enrollment forms, videos, employee brochures, and payroll stuffers are regularly provided. Our flexible billing system can support the payroll deduction cycle of most employers.

• Knowing that they can keep several coverages beyond their current employment
• You for bringing this worksite benefits program to them
