Three years ago, we were looking for a benefits consultant that was both knowledgeable about the industry and helpful with design options. We elected to work with Benemax, and were amazed by how much more they provided us! They regularly look out for our best interests, sharing a vast array of information and advice to us regarding market trends, design options and general industry facts. Benemax is highly professional, responsive and creative in its solutions. Without a doubt, we have received much more than we expected, and could not be more pleased with Benemax.

Goderich Elevators operates grain elevators in a union environment. We asked Benemax to do a detailed analysis of our benefit agreements. This review revealed areas of concern and suggestions were made as to how the company might cap its liabilities both now and in the future. During the annual reviews with the carrier, Benemax was successful in negotiating lesser rates than those proposed. Benemax has been an asset to our company.

We have been working with Benemax since the late eighties.  As a non-profit, government funded agency, maintaining our budget is one of our highest priorities.  They have provided us with excellent service and have done an outstanding job of controlling our costs.  We are one of the few organizations in our industry that has maintained and in some cases reduced our benefits costs. A complete benefit package for our employees is crucial ― Benemax has consistently accomplished this for us.

Since Benemax recommended that we switch our funding to an ASO arrangement…our results have been outstanding. We have saved a significant amount of time and money and everyone in the company now sees the value in our plan. I see our benefit plan as a great tool to hang on to my key associates and to attract new talent.

Benemax Financial Group is one of those rare Benefit Consulting companies that provide excellent, proactive, reliable, valued added customer service. Over the past five years, I have utilized Benemax’s services in both a previous organization as well as my current organization that is not-for-profit.

In each of these organizations, Benemax had provided exceptional service in terms of offering us creative ideas in the areas of cost savings for both the employee and employer. The annual benefit renewal process is completed in a professional and comprehensive manner taking into account the current status of the plan, information pertaining to benefit trends, the potential impact on our plan and recommended cost-saving solutions.

As always, they are a pleasure to work with!

For well over 15 years I have administered company benefit plans using traditional funding through Insurance companies. I was approached by Benemax Financial Group to consider their CLEAR Benefits System. I was immediately hooked on the level of expertise and trustworthiness that I felt from Benemax.

We have been in the program now for three years and have experienced significant savings in administrative expenses and have thoroughly enjoyed the amazing flexibility that this plan can offer.

Benemax Financial Group is truly an amazing service company that has saved us time and money. I highly recommend them.
