Attract & Retain Top Talent
Drastically improve your competitive advantage with this highly sought-after benefit
With costs for hiring new employees at an all-time high, finding a low-cost solution to retain those employees - especially top performers - is critical.
Offering student loan contributions as an employee benefit is a growing perk with many advantages:
Tax-free contributions: The CARES Act
allows employers to annually contribute up to $5,250 toward employees' student loan payments.
Stay ahead of the competition: 8% of companies offer this benefit in 2020, but over one-third will by 2024
Highly-valued by employees: Many rank it higher than 401k contribution or health insurance
Improve ROI: Cut recruiting costs as employee tenure increases dramatically for participants
