65% of Employees Changed Benefits During Open Enrollment, Data Shows. Here's How to Know if You Should Do the Same
Many employees dread open enrollment at work, otherwise known as that period when you'll need to select your benefits for the upcoming calendar year. The reason? Choosing benefits can be stressful, which explains why a large percentage of workers tend to retain their existing benefits, even when better choices exist.
But new data from Prudential reveals some encouraging news in this regard: A good 65% of employees elected new benefits this year rather than sticking with what they already had. This indicates that workers are putting more thought into open enrollment. If you're not sure whether to change up your benefits during open enrollment, ask yourself these important questions to see if a switch makes sense.
