As businesses become increasingly more complex and capital markets shine a brighter spotlight on performance, pressures mount to improve business results, particularly by controlling the exploding costs of employee and retiree benefits. To improve both employees' lives and companies' bottom lines, there is a renewed focus on optimizing the entire benefits program in the context of business strategy and human capital requirements.
