It's time for most people to start making their way back to the office. But what if you're looking for something different to do now? Well, bonus for you. Employers are trying to come up with fun perks to make you want to work with/for them. Like FREE lunch, or Happy Hours, but other people are looking for more practical benefits. Check these out.
- Most employees aren’t looking for fun perks from a job.
- 66% of folks say health benefits are the most important non-salary related factor they consider when looking at a job.
- 42% saying lack of health benefits is a job deal breaker.
- 53% of employees say they’ve even stayed at an unsatisfying job just because of the health benefits.
- But health insurance isn’t the only benefit workers are looking for. Others include:
- Paid time off (PTO) (57%)
- Retirement savings (ex. 401k plans) (41%)
- Dental/Vision insurance (39%)
- Life insurance (37%)
And all those extra perks may not be as attractive as employers think they are.
- In fact, 62% of employees say a job listing that describes, “how fun it is to” work at the company is a huge “red flag.”
- 53% say perks like ping pong tables and in-house coffee shops are also red flags.
