In January and February 2017, the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) conducted its annual survey of U.S. employers to gather information on more than 300 employee benefits. The survey asked human resource professionals if their organizations formally offered any of the listed benefits to their employees. This report examines the prevalence of benefits over the past five years to track trends and understand the benefits landscape in the current talent marketplace.Organizations can use data in this report to help inform their benefits strategy. In addition to a discussion of the key findings, tables listing the prevalence of benefits over the past five years are included in the appendix. Customized reports are available through the SHRM Benchmarking Service to provide organizations with benefits data for their specific industry.
