Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Am I eligible?
Yes, if you own and operate a profitable Canadian business in the building industry and have 3 or more full-time employees (including yourself).
As the owner, what are the advantages of setting up a benefits plan through my business?
You already pay for medical and dental expenses for you and your family, so doesn’t it make sense to pay them through your business in the most tax-effective way possible?
If you add a Health Care Spending Account, you can use it to make sure all your health and dental care expenses (including the portions not covered by the main plan) are covered and 100% of the cost is a tax-deductible business expense when administered through a benefits plan.
What about my employees?
A benefits plan is seen as a valuable part of the compensation by employees. It helps attract and retain them, especially in a tight job market. In fact, this plan is unique in the building industry, offering coverage you can’t find anywhere else. Your employees will see that you care and they’ll feel more confident knowing they have some financial protection in case of an accident, in addition to coverage for day-to-day prescription drug and dental expenses.
You can build your plan with different benefits for different groups of employees. It’s a no-brainer. You’ll save money and gain protection for your family and employees.
What if I have multiple business partners?
No problem. Our plan can accommodate all partners.
