Employee
Benefits Plans
As
health care costs are rising, Employee Benefits Plans are becoming
increasingly important to both employees and employers. The
experienced staff at CDSA is available to meet with you to discuss
the plan options in detail and help you decide which type of plan
best meets your needs.
Cafeteria
Plans
A Cafeteria
Plan is referred to as flexible compensation because it allows employees
to be more flexible with their salary and benefits. Cafeteria
Plans can be used for insurance premiums, medical expenses and day
care expenses. With a cafeteria plan employees buy benefits
and pay for them with pre-tax salary deductions. When employees
contribute to their cafeteria plan, they save on Federal and State
Income Tax, along with FICA and Medicare taxes (approximately 30%).
Cafeteria
Plans offer the employer an opportunity to lower benefit costs and
save FICA and Medicare taxes on employee contributions to the plan
(7.65%).
In addition
to saving employees and employers money, Cafeteria Plans increase
employer and employee choices and provide employees with a positive
image of their employer.
