The Keys to a 5-Generation Workforce? Fringe Benefits and Personalized Options | BenefitsPRO
“Benefits such as tuition reimbursement, accident insurance, pet insurance, PTO purchase and paid family leave are popular amongst younger generations. Providing benefits that will please all five workplace generations is not an easy task but, these steps will help to reach your goal to meet employee’s needs and attract and retain the best and brightest talent.”– Emily Bailey, Managing Principal, OneDigital Hartford

Targeted Benefits Help Baby Boomers Stay at Work, Prepare to Retire | SHRM
“Many older workers facing the same types of issues can benefit from the support of their colleagues. Employers can bring in an expert each month to talk about relevant topics, such as wellness or financial literacy, which are important for pre-retirement planning.

One of the most important benefits an employer can offer older workers is a legal-benefits plan that provides employees with legal advice and representation for personal legal matters, such as wills and estate planning and preparations for eldercare. These are all essential matters for older workers.” – Sean Nehlsen, Regional Managing Director, OneDigital Cleveland

Millennials are HR’s Biggest Challenge in the Multi-gen Workforce | HR Dive
“Younger workers are more likely to pass on voluntary benefits and opt for those that meet a more immediate need, such as tuition reimbursement or remote-work options. Personalization reportedly has high appeal among millennials, especially when the concept is applied to benefits.” – Emily Bailey, Managing Principal, OneDigital Hartford
