Don’t Overlook Annual Enrollment – Your Benefits Matter!

As we move into Q4 and year-end quickly approaches, I know many of you outside the HR world are feeling the pressure. Workloads are mounting, deadlines are looming, and you’re focused on hitting those annual KPIs. The last thing you probably want is another email from your HR or Total Rewards team cluttering your inbox, right?

But before you dismiss those emails, let’s talk about something that often gets overlooked: your benefits. They’re a key part of your total rewards package, and you’ve earned them. So why not take a few moments to ensure you’re getting the most out of them?

Why Your Benefits Matter

Your benefits aren’t just another item to check off your to-do list. They’re essential in supporting your health, well-being, and financial future. Now is the time to review what’s available, what’s changing, and what new options are being offered so you can make smart choices for yourself and your family.

Consider these questions:

  • Do you know which medical plan is the best fit for your needs?

  • Are there perks you’re not utilizing, like a free gym membership or mental health resources?

Annual Enrollment communications are coming your way, and they’ll give you all the information you need to make informed decisions. This is your chance to understand what’s changing, what’s staying the same, and how you can maximize your benefits.

Make the Most of Annual Enrollment

When those emails hit your inbox, take a few minutes to read through them. If your HR team offers a webinar, consider joining. It’s a small time commitment that could make a big difference for your health and finances.

 

A Shoutout to HR Teams

And to my HR colleagues working tirelessly behind the scenes – thank you. I see the long hours, the endless initiatives you’re juggling, and the dedication you bring to making Annual Enrollment run smoothly. Your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed, and you’re almost at the finish line! 🙌
