Help Your Plan Participants Understand Their Benefits and How to Use Them
Trying to understand health and retirement benefits is a source of frustration for many workers. Effective outreach and communications can help plan participants understand and make the most of their benefits, giving them the information they need to take care of their family’s health and save for the future.
Aukema & Associates partners with Taft-Hartley Trusts and other plans to provide strategic communications consultation, customizing communications based on the demographics of plan participants and the goals of the Trustees, and employing the most effective tactics to reach participants and their families.
