Corporate Solutions

Creating adaptable insurance solutions for employees

Why should an employer have an employee benefit plan?

Helps employers to look after their business by taking care of their valuable employees. Corporate Solutions plans can help provide much-needed insurance cover for everyday working New Zealanders; for a small percentage of a company's payroll and by providing access to voluntary top-up benefits.

In some cases, AIA New Zealand's Corporate Solutions plans cost less than a cup of coffee per employee per week; however, research shows the perceived value is much higher.

Offering employee benefits can give a company's recruitment and retention strategy a competitive edge, particularly in tough financial times where giving bonuses or pay increases may not be possible.

AIA Corporate Solutions plans can be tailored to meet the goals of the employer. Products and coverage amounts can be structured to attract new employees, retain key employees, improve engagement and/or reward length of service.


What solutions are available to you?

You can offer your employees a Compulsory Plan (or subsidised plan), where an employer sets clear and definable eligibility criteria for who they want to insure under the plan, with cover compulsory for all employees who meet the criteria. The employer is generally responsible for payment of the whole insurance premium.

In some cases, we can provide voluntary top-up arrangements for members of a Compulsory Plan,(or subsidised plan) with the related insurance premium collected by salary deduction.
