Paychex, Inc., a provider of integrated human capital management software solutions for human resources, employee benefits, insurance services, and payroll, has introduced Paychex Flex Perks, a digital marketplace of employee benefits curated to address the needs of today’s diverse, five-generational workforce. Launching with 17 unique products, Paychex Flex Perks includes early access to earned wages, financial wellness solutions, and voluntary lifestyle benefits for the employees of Paychex customers.
Paychex Flex Perks is integrated directly into Paychex Flex, the company’s cloud-based SaaS solution, and is tailored to the employee user experience, making it easy and intuitive to enroll in benefits. Employees can self-select additional benefits based on their personal needs, freeing up time for business owners and HR leaders to focus on more strategic initiatives that come with running a business.“Based on our continuous monitoring of workplace challenges and customer needs, we see firsthand that many companies struggle to compete for talent in today’s labor market due to lack of employee benefits beyond traditional healthcare,” said Tom Hammond, Paychex vice president of strategy, partnerships, and business development. Hammond added “Paychex is well positioned to create a unique marketplace and customized experience for the employees of our clients that offers valuable voluntary benefits. With Paychex Flex Perks, businesses of all sizes can offer enterprise-level benefits that either augment what is already provided to employees or enable our customers to offer employee benefits for the first time.” Paychex Flex Perks services are paid through employee payroll deduction at no cost to the employer and include:
- An online benefits marketplace that enables employees to enroll in various benefits, such as home, auto, life and pet insurance, disability coverage and more. The platform educates employees on each benefit to ensure the elections are personalized to their lifestyle, with premiums seamlessly deducted from their paychecks.
- An online spending account with Debit Mastercard® and an optional Savings Account. Paychex Pay is an alternative solution to traditional banking that is a convenient and secure way to manage finances.
- Flexible payment option for employees looking to access unpaid wages as they earn them. Earned wages are deducted from an employee’s next paycheck, giving them the flexibility to pay for things when they need to while avoiding late fees, overdraft charges, and expensive payday loans.
- Helps employees achieve financial goals and maximize their earnings, savings, and investing potential with free financial coaching, budgeting and educational tools, loans, and direct access to measure financial well-being.
