Benefits enrollment solutions
Now more than ever, workplace benefits play an important role in helping to protect employee finances. But employee benefits only have value if employees understand how to use them. You can make an impact when you make a plan to help ensure employees can make informed choices based on their needs.
Guardian works with you to develop an active enrollment strategy to meet your needs and help employees get the most value from their benefits.

Guided decision-making with Guardian
Making benefits decisions can be stressful: According to Guardian’s Workplace Benefits Study,4 many employees are overwhelmed and confused by the widening array of choices. To help, Guardian offers multiple options to help employees feel confident about their benefits decisions—from one-on-one counseling to self-guided online tools, and more.
A positive enrollment experience is good for business, too. Here’s why.
Our research shows that positive, efficient, and engaging benefits experiences help employees make better benefits decisions, leading to greater appreciation for the offerings—and their employer. Watch our Enrollment Boot Camp webinar series to learn more.
Is your organization ready for open enrollment? It may be difficult to navigate how to achieve enrollment goals like benefit education and engagement while keeping employees feeling supported and satisfied with their experience. Join us for the first of a three-part Enrollment Boot Camp series.
When it comes to providing insurance benefits and communicating with employees, it shouldn’t be a one-size-fits-all approach. Younger workers in particular need a targeted approach to learning about and enrolling in their benefits, especially once they turn 26 and aren’t eligible for their parents’ plans.
The workforce and dynamics around the country are changing, making it more challenging than ever to develop a cohesive enrollment strategy. Join us to gain a real-life look at the ups and downs of enrollment management and how to optimize this process for both employees and the organization.
