Confidence in the future of the voluntary industry has rebounded since the end of 2008, a study finds.
The latest results of Eastbridge Consulting Group’s Voluntary Industry Confidence Index survey shows 68% of carriers, brokers and other vendors selling in the worksite think employees will be more enthusiastic about voluntary benefits 12 months from now. That’s up from 60% who thought so in a similar survey at the end of 2008, says Eastbridge, Avon, Conn.
