quality benefits strengthen business
AWB’s core mission is to help employers
across all sectors be successful and support
their employees. One of the ways it does that
is by offering a suite of member services.
Association members have access to an
affordable and quality health care plan
called HealthChoice, a savings plan with My
Future 401(k) and a workers’ compensation
retrospective rating program, CompWise, that
saves employers time and money through
comprehensive claims management and
safety consulting.
AWB understands that a robust benefits
package is one tool for employers to retain
and recruit the talent they need to compete
locally and globally.
“By offering a high-quality health insurance
plan to our employees, the retention rate
is much better than if we didn’t,” said Mike
Eller, president of ESTeem Industrial Wireless
Solutions, whose company participates in the
HealthChoice plan. Eller employs 12 people
that have an average tenure of 10 years.
The numbers tell the story: At the close of
2018, 2,528 employers and 27,000 people
were covered by AWB’s HealthChoice
insurance plan, 40 percent of which were
previously uninsured.
Additionally, participants in AWB’s CompWise
manufacturing retrospective group received
a 29.5 percent refund in 2018, adding value
to their companies and rewarding safe
workplaces.
The right benefits and services matter and
AWB takes pride in being a one-stop shop for
cost-saving business solutions.
