Top of mind for most recruits is "What benefits are offered?" This is usually generalized to mean "group healthcare," but there are so many more options to explore. In this course, you'll learn about which benefits are mandatory, optional, and not required to be offered, and which rules must be followed. It's a relatively straightforward topic, but heavily backed with legislation that can easily jeopardize an organization's entire plan. This course can be used in preparation for the HR Certification Institute® (HRCI®) SPHR® certification exam.
