PerkSpot

Summer is officially here around the country, and as employees start to plan their vacations and children are out of school, PerkSpot has procured some great ideas and discounts to help plan some family fun. These summertime discounts are just one example of the many discounts and voluntary benefits that PerkSpot can bring to an employee discount program. In fact, PerkSpot works with human resources departments to create programs from scratch or enhance and customize existing programs. Perks and voluntary benefits that PerkSpot can bring to your company have been and will continue to be an easy and cost-effective tool for human resources departments to successfully manage their human capital. And, you can use the discounts when you plan your corporate or department outings! Here’s a sampling of our summertime discounts:

When it comes to employee discounts, deals and voluntary benefits, PerkSpot caters to the whole family. Pet insurance is an increasingly popular and affordable voluntary benefit that can keep your furry friends healthy and happy. A study by The Freedonia Group, Inc. estimates that U.S. spending on veterinary care, laboratory testing and pet insurance will increase 7.1% a year to $28.9 billion in 2011. At the retail level alone, pet owners in the U.S. are expected to spend over $10 billion on pet health products.

PerkSpot offers discounted policies with VPI Pet Insurance as part of its employee discount programs and voluntary benefits packages. As the nation’s oldest and largest provider of pet health insurance, VPI offers coverage for diagnostic tests, treatments, office visits, lab fees, prescriptions, hospitalization, x-rays and surgical procedures. You can visit any licensed veterinarian, even when you are away from home. Whether you own a dog, cat, reptile or other exotic animal, insurance is the best way to provide your pet with a longer, healthier lifespan.

America’s current economic downturn is causing many employees to reevaluate their spending habits. Employees are looking to their voluntary benefit options to help save income on necessary purchases. According to a recent article from Voluntary.com about voluntary benefits, Bob Reiff, Senior Vice President for The Hartford’s Group Benefits Division states that: “We are predicting enrollment events to double from last year to this year. But it could be even greater, since we’ve already seen enrollment activities jump 51% from first quarter 2007 to the first quarter of 2008.”

PerkSpot helps corporations meet employee demand for voluntary benefit packages and enrollment education. PerkSpot creates voluntary programs that bring employees savings on necessary services like home and auto insurance, pet insurance and legal services. PerkSpot’s comprehensive voluntary programs easily fit into employer benefits communication materials and benefit enrollment events. This meets the demand and gives employees the opportunity to take advantage of their savings opportunities immediately.
