  • What costs should I consider for health benefits when negotiating my salary?

    Posted by admin on June 4th, 2010 and filed under negotiating | 1 Comment »

    I don’t know how expensive it is for a company in general to add an employee to their health plan; and I am trying to figure out a negotiation price for my salary, can you give me some help on this. How much "benefit costs" should i consider in relation to my salary?
    Its a mid-small sized company with about 40 employees

    Insurance costs will vary by size of the organization (and thus their negotiating leverage), as well as by your region of the country. I’d count on your total benefits package to add somewhere between 25% to 33% on top of your salary.

    Your mileage may vary.
