Attract & Retain Rockstar Employees by Boosting Your Global Benefits

Estimated Reading Time: 5 Minutes

If the COVID-19 pandemic taught businesses anything, it is certain that now, more than ever, it is critical to understand and support employees’ needs both in and outside the office. Whether your organization has offices across the globe or is a small business with a few (or a few hundred) employees, it’s to the employer’s advantage to offer benefits that not only help attract top talent, but also boost morale and retain rockstar employees. According to the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), companies that use benefits strategically outperform companies that don’t: better overall company performance (58% vs 34%), above-average effectiveness in recruitment (19% vs 8%), and higher retention (28% vs 11%). With 96% of employees believing that empathy is an important way to advance employee retention, it is evident that employees are yearning for additional support from their employers. And, if achieved, the employer reaps the benefit of having an engaged employee, and in turn, a more achievable bottom line.

That’s why, for over 50 years, Generali Global Assistance (GGA) has been continuously researching the challenges and concerns facing both employees and employers and developing the technology and services to address them. GGA’s suite of care services are not only designed to help organizations stand out in the marketplace and aid in increased retention, they also provide their employees real relief during times of distress.

Boost Company Morale with Benefits That Show You Care

GGA’s suite of care services are a tangible demonstration to your employees that you care about them and their families no matter what life throws their way.

Within 24 hours, our specialists will:

A Portal Platform that Facilitates Human Care: Eldercare Services

Increasingly more adults are faced with the difficult decision of moving their aging loved ones to assisted living facilities or keeping them at home where they often prefer to be.

Our Eldercare Portal is an immediate benefit that your employees can take advantage of to ensure their loved ones receive proper home care, eliminating stress and helping to live happier, longer lives.
