Voluntary.com is a great source that Human Resources administrators can use to keep up with the trends in corporate voluntary benefits. They recently published an article about vision care in the United States. According to a yearlong study just 42% of Americans without vision insurance had seen an eye care professional within the year.
Stephen Ingram, executive director of the National Association of Vision Care Plans, believes the findings suggest that “employers should not only offer a vision plan, but also educate employees on how to use them effectively.” Although consumers are generally taking a greater interest in their health care, he cautions that they do not understand how regular eye exams and vision care promote overall health and well being.
PerkSpot offers a variety of employee discounts on medical products and services. Employees have access to perks at merchants like 1-800 Contacts, 39DollarGlasses.com, VisionDirect.com, DentalPlans.com, drugstore.com, and GNC. These discounts can complement the health care benefits that employees may already receive. Here is a sample of the discounts offered as part of a PerkSpot employee discount program:
10% off automatically applied at checkout.
10% off when you spend $100. Use the code ‘TENLENS’.
8% off automatically applied at checkout.

The recent Knowledge@Wharton article about the rising costs of employee benefits has been picked up by another leading industry publication. Voluntary.com is a trusted source for news and trends in corporate voluntary benefits. Sparked by Google’s decision to dramatically raise the price of its day care program, the article takes a look at what Human Resources administrators can do to provide valuable benefits in a slumping economy.
