Benefits for Part-Time Workers


For over 28 years, accomplished insurance broker John D'Angelo III has provided employers with Worksite Employee Benefits alongside the most innovative enrollment and communications technologies. Founder and CEO of the Forza Insurance Group, John D'Angelo III offers employers a plethora of voluntary benefits options, including packages scaled for part-time employees

The increase in part-time workers has shifted how employers provide benefits to their employees. Though part-timers are not generally offered the full range of benefits available to full-time employees, they may be eligible for health insurance or a company-backed 401k plan. 

Some of these benefits are mandated by federal and state laws. However, for employees who work below the 30 hours per week cutoff for coverage mandated by the Affordable Care Act, employer-sponsored health insurance is an especially attractive benefit.

Employers may also extend fringe benefits, such as employee discounts, wellness programs, or work-from-home days, to their part-employees. By offering an enticing benefits package to part-time workers, companies can stand out in the crowded gig economy and attract the best talent. It also sends a signal that the company values all of its employees.
