Take Command HRAs Eliminate Health Benefit Challenges for Restaurants

Offering health benefits in the restaurant industry can be tough, but HRAs provide an affordable and flexible way to boost employee retention. Here’s a look at some of the major challenges and how HRAs can make a difference.

Eliminate High Turnover & Keep Dependable Employees

Restaurant employees are more likely to leave when they aren’t offered health benefits. High turnover rates cause disruptions and drive up costs. However, you can retain your valuable employees with flexible restaurant health benefits. With an HRA, restaurant owners can offer personalized health benefits that meet individual employee needs, helping to reduce turnover and keep your team stable.

Provide Amazing Health Benefits that Satisfy Every Employee

Many employers want to offer benefits for their employees, but it can be difficult to find a plan that fits everyone. An HRA for restaurant employees gives them the freedom to choose health plans that match their personal health needs and preferences. This flexibility improves employee satisfaction and loyalty, making your restaurant a preferred place to work.

Keep Profit Margin Intact & Relieve Management 

Restaurants historically operate on tight margins and typically don't have a full-blown HR department to handle employees like organizations outside of the hospitality industry. With an HRA, restaurant owners can set their budget for benefits based on what they can afford, and by bringing on Take Command as a partner, they're effectively outsourcing their health benefits so they can focus on the success of their restaurant.
