'Total Rewards Statement' identifies total compensation, benefits

Benefits can constitute 30 percent to 40 percent of an employee's total rewards package.

The Department of Human Resource Management has unveiled the Total Rewards Statement for calendar year 2017, allowing employees to view a graphical breakdown of employer-provided compensation and benefits from the prior calendar year. 

The feature, located within PeoplePortal, also allows employees to see benefits to which they contribute, such as health plans and supplemental life insurance. 

The statement has sections for compensation, benefits, retirement and work/life. 

The retirement section of the Total Rewards Statement focuses on the employer basic and matching contributions that an employee may receive. The “employee paid” value represents an employee’s deferral of earnings to a tax-sheltered annuity. 

The work/life section of the statement includes the value of items provided by the employer that the employee may or may not be utilizing such as Drayson Center membership, SmartDollarAllClear IDEmployee Assistance Program, cafeteria and gift shop discounts, and more.  

“We feel our comprehensive compensation and benefit package allows us to attract and retain top talent, and the Total Rewards Statement is a tool that will raise employee awareness regarding the total value of the rewards provided by their employer,” said Lizette Norton, vice president of Human Resource Management.

Although the statement is new to Loma Linda University Medical Center – Murrieta this year, it is the second annual publication for Loma Linda University, LLU Medical Center, LLU Children’s Hospital, LLU Behavioral Medicine Center, LLU Shared Services, LLU Health Care and LLU Health Education Consortium.
