SUMMARY:STRATEGIES FOR WINNING THE POST-PANDEMIC STRUGGLE
DESCRIPTION:Congratulations! You suffered through the pandemic by reacting in agile and decisive ways to keep your business afloat. As businesses move into the next phase of 2021\, now is the time to seek out and seize the opportunities emerging in the recovery. \nOne of the many things that business leaders are struggling with is hiring and retaining. Most They have more business than they know what to do with and not enough hands to get the jobs done in a timely manner. Because of this\, they are burning out their top employees and are having trouble retaining them. One of the most important things you can do as a leader is show your employees how much you value them and what they bring to the table. Businesses that can retain and grow their team will thrive\, and businesses that cannot figure out how to do this will seriously flounder\, and maybe even fail.  \nThis workshop will discuss the tactics to give your company the competitive edge moving forward in 2021 and beyond. We will discuss successful hiring methods\, successful onboarding procedures\, employee retention\, leadership tactics\, and creating your high performance\, emotionally connected team. You cannot afford to miss this workshop! \n  \nThis workshop will be hosted by ABC Eastern PA Member Paramount Business Development

SUMMARY:Effective Delegation Strategies
DESCRIPTION:TARGET AUDIENCE:  Mid-level Managers and up \nHow many times have you done a task yourself because you thought you could get it done quicker and more efficiently than anyone else? Even if you could get it done quicker\, all the time you are spending doing jobs that other people could be doing is time that you are not running your business. Every time you allow yourself to get bogged down in simple details that your employees could be working on\, you are not being an effective leader. The main person in your company who will be truly motivated to grow your company is YOU. Every minute that you spend working on tasks that can be delegated to someone else is a minute that you are not planning\, strategizing\, and building the best business possible. This workshop will discuss effective delegation strategies that you can implement today so you can get back to the most crucial tasks. \n  \nSeminar Hosted by ABC Member Paramount Business Development

SUMMARY:Free Benefits & Payroll Savings Hosted by ABC Insurance Trust
DESCRIPTION:SAVE ON PAYROLL TAXES AND PROVIDE EMPLOYEES WITH THE BENEFITS THEY NEED AT NO NET COST  WITH A SIMERP PLAN THROUGH ABC.  \nWHAT IS SIMERP? \nSIMERP is a Self-Funded Medical Expense Reimbursement Program; a tax qualified platform that utilizes IRS tax codes to lower your payroll burden while providing employees with a tax break to purchase additional benefits and a free* wellness plan. \nA SIMERP PLAN ALLOWS: \n\nEmployers to save money on payroll taxes with no up-front costs\nEmployees to take home the same pay while adding benefits\nCurrent group health plan enrollees and waivers to participate\n\nTHE BENEFITS OF SIMERP: \n\nEmployers receive ~$500-$700 in FICA net savings per enrolled employee\, per year.\nEnrolled Employees gain a reserve that doesn’t reduce their take home pay.\nEnrolled employees & their dependents have access to a robust wellness plan that includes unlimited telemedicine for a $0 copayment.\n\nHOW IT WORKS: \n\nEmployer offers a voluntary wellness program under the SIMERP section 105 guidelines.\nEnrolled employees receive a credit on their payroll\, based on the estimated value of the wellness program\, their pay and deductions.\nThis “credit” creates a reserve\, which allows the employee to purchase/pay for qualifies benefits.\n\nTHE RESULT: Employees receive additional benefits at no cost while employers reduce their payroll burden and further improve their benefits program to attract and retain employees. \nEmployers can integrate this program into their benefits package at any time.  \nTo learn more about ABC Insurance Trust visit their website at insurancetrust.abc.org. \nABC WL SIMERP Promo \n

SUMMARY:OCIP/CCIP/SDI Seminar
DESCRIPTION:ABC Member Davis Bucco Makara & Dorsey & Construction Risk Partners will be hosting a seminar on Owner Controlled Insurance Program/Contractor Controlled Insurance Program/Subcontractor Default Insurance \nInsurance coverage is as essential as having qualified labor and equipment to perform a construction project.  Sometimes this insurance is offered through Owner Controlled or Contractor Controlled insurance Programs.  These can provide benefits but also anticipated risks for program participants.  This course will discuss the mechanic’s of these programs\, how they are managed\, and what legal risks they do and do not cover.  This course will also examine the growing use of Subcontractor Default Insurance as an alternative to bonding projects.  SDI can provide an important avenue of recovery when enrolled subcontractors default\, while also creating broader opportunities for non-bondable subcontractors to participate in larger projects.
