This past week Knowledge@Wharton published an article highlighting trends in the benefits and perks that companies are offering to their employees. PerkSpot CEO Chris Hill was asked to give his view on the landscape of employee benefits today.
“We have seen an expansion into voluntary benefits. As the costs of health care and traditional benefits are rising, employers are looking to provide — at no cost to them — something that’s perceived of as valuable to the employee.”
PerkSpot is the solution for Human Resources administrators looking to offer an employee discount program as part of their employee benefit package. To inquire about our programs contact sales[at]perkspot[dot]com.

This eye-opening article highlights the value of securing the identities of employees at work and off the job. The article suggests that the average loss to a company experiencing a security breach is as much as $92,000 per victim and 1,600 work hours per incident. Even when an individual loses their identity individually it can cost a company 600 hours. Never has security been a more crucial factor when considering employee discount program providers. PerkSpot offers human resources professionals a secure network of benefits for their employees in addition to discounts on identify theft and security services.
