Employee Benefits

Establishing an employee benefits program that meets your needs as an employer, and also meets the needs of your employees, is a challenge facing many business owners today.

What do you want to include in your benefits plan? Where do you find providers that offer exactly the benefits you need? Are you paying too much for the benefits you have now? Which capital accumulation plan should you use – Simple IRA, Roth IRA, 401(k) or Roth 401(k)?

Our CPAmerica member firms have employee benefits professionals who can help you with the answers to these questions and more.

Our professionals start by reviewing your overall needs and then work with you to devise a benefit plan that meets your objectives and complements your compensation philosophy. Because they are not selling benefits products, they can offer you objective and independent advice.

To ensure that you are receiving the best price for the best service, our member CPAs and business advisers do all the negotiations for both new and renewal plans.
