Retail FAQ
How does VALION help reduce retail turnover?
By providing comprehensive wellness benefits and life insurance options typically unavailable at retail positions, employees have more reasons to stay. The improved total compensation helps compete with other employers.
What about part-time retail workers?
Currently, the program requires employees to be full-time (30+ hours/week). Part-time workers would not qualify, but full-time store managers and team leads would be eligible.
How do we handle seasonal staffing changes?
Employees can only enroll during annual Open Enrollment or with qualifying life events. Seasonal hires who don't meet the full-time threshold wouldn't qualify, simplifying administration.
Is multi-location administration complex?
No, the program is administered centrally regardless of store count. Whether you have 1 location or 100, the administrative burden remains minimal with our turnkey approach.
Can store managers explain this to employees?
We provide comprehensive employee communication materials and can support employee information sessions. Store managers don't need to become benefits experts.
