What rental and leasing employers actually offer across medical, ancillary, leave, and retirement, benchmarked against the wider market.
Rental and leasing employers run branch networks that compete in dozens of separate local labor markets at once. A benefit package has to be attractive in all of them without being priced for the most expensive.
1. Medical
Medical provision has to work across a spread of locations with very different healthcare costs and networks, which makes plan design a national problem with local consequences.

Ancillary lines are a straightforward way to build consistency across a branch network where pay rates necessarily vary by market.
