Are your health and wellness benefits the reason your employees left?

Employee retention is equally as critical. Research shows employees today have much more clarity about what they want from a job.

Hawaii Dental Service (HDS) has been a partner to Hawaii organizations for more than 60 years and understands the challenges businesses face. One of the greatest post-pandemic dilemmas has been recruiting great employees to fill vital roles with organizations. Employee retention is equally as critical. Research shows employees today have much more clarity about what they want from a job. It’s more than money, even though that is a major consideration. Employees value a company’s culture and want to make sure the organization’s values are aligned with theirs. They also want opportunities to grow professionally and to know their company’s leaders care about their overall work experience and well-being. An attractive benefits package is key to employee recruitment and retention. In Hawaii, many employees have come to expect good health and dental plans as standard components of their benefits package, with the premiums often paid in full or in part by their employers.

HDS partners with Hawaii employers to prioritize their employees’ oral and overall health while keeping their labor costs in check as healthier employees require less visits to the dentist and are less likely to develop health issues. These efforts in addition to oral health education translate into lower healthcare costs for the company and its employees.

Maintain the same commitment to your part-time and transitioning employees by simply sharing their options for getting the care they need. There are individual dental plans that are ideal for employees who may not be eligible for the company’s full slate of benefits or for employees who may need to fill in the gap in dental coverage while they are in transition to or from your company. It’s a small way to impact all individuals who make your business successful.
