What are
Lifestyle Benefits?
Employee Lifestyle Benefits go beyond the basics and help you elevate your talent strategy.
These innovative perks enhance traditional offerings, directly supporting your employees’ lives outside the workplace. Imagine providing wellness programs that rejuvenate, fitness stipends that energize, and even pet care options that show you care about their furry family members.
This kind of comprehensive support sends a powerful message to your team: you care deeply about their well-being.
Lifestyle benefits play a crucial role in talent acquisition and retention.
They not only enhance the overall compensation package but also reflect a company’s commitment to employee well-being.
Types of Lifestyle Benefits
The beauty of lifestyle benefits is that this category can be very open-ended. Each employee is unique, and their interests, hobbies, and choices are as well. The goal with any lifestyle benefit program is to give employees lots of options to choose from, so they can pick what works best for them.

Lifestyle Benefits vs Core Benefits: What’s the Difference?
While both lifestyle and core benefits are important, they serve different purposes.
Core benefits include things such as health and dental insurance, vision care, or paramedical coverage. These benefits keep employees healthy.
Lifestyle benefits on the other hand are additional perks that can enhance job satisfaction and employee engagement. They look after an employee holistically, both inside and outside of work hours. They can be a powerful tool for businesses to differentiate themselves in the competitive job market.
Boosting Productivity with Employee Lifestyle Benefits
According to Forbes, 61% of employees agree that they have made healthier lifestyle choices because of their company’s wellness program.
According to the same study, 89% of workers at companies that support well-being initiatives are more likely to recommend their company as a good place to work.
47% of organizations report that keeping a competitive total compensation package is one of their biggest challenges.
