Insure your staff and you insure the future of your business

Business health insurance provides your people with security and peace of mind, should they fall ill or require medical help. When choosing a job or accepting a position, the quality, or the mere fact you have health insurance could determine whether you attract the best talent. In New Zealand, eight out of ten employees rate medical insurance as an important company benefit.

Getting health insurance for your staff is more affordable than you might think. In most cases, subsidised health insurance is less than 1% of your total salary bill. Any money you pay for premiums is offset by an increase in productivity – healthy staff are three times more productive than unhealthy ones.* An absent employee typically costs an employer $600 to $1,000 a year due to sickness. Staff with health insurance can return to work up to three months faster than those without access to private treatment.
