It's critical to recognize that as an employer in Texas, you must also prioritize nonmedical and volunteer benefits as well as financial advantages and those that contribute to a better quality of life. These benefits are valuable whether you work for Insperity Holdings or Texas Primary Care Clinics. In the state of Texas, offering a pension plan to your staff is an important part of their compensation package.
Employees can contribute to their retirement through pre-tax payroll deductions if they have a 401k plan and employers can also make matching contributions. An IRA, which is only opened by an individual through a broker or bank, is another option. Both IRAs and 401Ks are defined contribution plans. A pension is a defined benefit plan that guarantees a specific amount in retirement, whereas a defined contribution plan allows both the employee and employer to invest and contribute money towards retirement.
Offering a 401k may distinguish your benefits package from the competition. When offered, 78% of Texas businesses and 68% of employees will take advantage of this benefit.

It's critical for businesses to offer a variety of financial incentives and perks in order to attract and retain high-quality staff. While some may be more beneficial than others, it's essential to evaluate all possibilities. Whether you attended the University of Texas at Austin or a school closer to your home, 57% of Texas employers provide student loan assistance. 33% of Texas firms provide access to financial advice, while 62% provide access on employee assistance programs (EAP).
Catering to each employee's specific set of requirements should be at the top of your priority list as an employer. Keep in mind that a recent college graduate and someone who has been working for ten years with children requires considerably different benefits. These two cases need varying kinds of flexibility and workstation advantages. With this in mind, we can see that 14% of Texas employers provide a flexible workspace, 20% provide a flexible schedule, 14% give childcare, and 9% offer free transportation.
