The Fall Employee Benefits Fair allowed employees to learn more about the many benefits and services available to them and qualified nine employees for a grand prize: a basket filled with beach-themed goodies such as a blanket, smores kit and more, as well as a $500 Visa gift card.
During the October 31-November 2 events, booths sponsored by both internal services and external vendors highlighted financial wellness, healthy living, retirement, health benefits, open enrollment information and more. In addition to information, some exhibitors offered product samples, discount coupons, and giveaways.
Human Resource Management, which hosts the benefits fairs, makes it fun by incentivizing employees to visit the various booths, where they earn stamps in addition to knowledge. Upon completing their stamp cards, employees submit them to a drawing in hopes of winning a prize.
Beyond the grand prize, the other prizes included gifts donated by the vendors (valued at $50 or more) as well as assorted restaurant and retail gift cards ($50 value).
This year, Human Resource Management implemented an employee idea to further improve benefit information accessibility by creating the first-ever Virtual Benefits Fair. The Virtual Benefits Fair provided an opportunity for employees who were unable to attend to have access to the same benefit related information that is provided at the in-person benefits fairs but through a virtual environment.
The employees who registered for the virtual fair and did not attend an in-person fair received give-aways and goodies that were available at the in-person benefits fairs. The giveaway bags were distributed during the month of December. Employees who attended the Virtual Benefits Fair and did not receive their bag should contact Human Resource Management at ext. 14001.
For more information about the in-person fairs or the virtual fair, contact Human Resource Management at (909) 651-4001 ext.14001; humanresources@llu.edu.
