Medical, Dental, and Vision

We are pleased to offer our team members dynamic medical, dental and vision benefits to support their overall health and well-being. By providing a qualified high deductible healthcare plan with a dollar-for-dollar match in the HSA and a robust dental and vision plan, we aim to promote a healthier workforce and enhance the quality of life for you and your family. Your well-being is our priority, and we are committed to supporting you every step of the way.

High Deductible Healthcare Plan

Our qualified High Deductible Healthcare Plan (HDHP) provides significant savings on monthly premiums, allowing you to allocate those funds towards other financial goals or investments. The plan is designed to encourage you to take a more proactive approach to your health care by making informed choices about your medical expenses. With the opportunity to contribute to a Health Savings Account (HSA), you can save pre-tax dollars for qualified medical expenses, providing even more financial flexibility. Ultimately, a high deductible health care plan can empower you to manage your health care costs more effectively while enjoying greater control over your health decisions.

HSA

Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) offer a range of benefits that can significantly enhance your financial and healthcare planning. By contributing pre-tax dollars to your HSA, you can reduce your taxable income while simultaneously saving for medical expenses. BZI offers a dollar-for-dollar match on your HSA contributions up to the IRS limit. Funds in your HSA can be used for qualified medical expenses and HSAs can also serve as a long-term investment tool, with the potential for growth through interest or investment options, making them a valuable resource for both current and future healthcare needs.

Vision

This plan not only covers routine eye exams, which are essential for maintaining optimal eye health, but it also provides significant savings or reimbursment on prescription eyewear, including glasses and contact lenses. Regular eye check-ups can detect early signs of health issues, allowing for timely intervention. We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to prioritize your eye health and enhance your overall quality of life!

Dental

Regular dental visits can help prevent serious health issues, as oral health is closely linked to overall health. With a dental plan, you gain access to routine check-ups, cleanings, and necessary treatments at a reduced cost, making it easier to maintain your dental hygiene. Investing in your dental health not only contributes to a brighter smile but also promotes confidence and vitality in your daily life.

Mental Health

Mental health is an essential aspect of our overall well-being, and it plays a crucial role in our productivity and job satisfaction. We recognize that the pressures of work and life can sometimes feel overwhelming, and it's important to prioritize self-care and seek support when needed. Remember, it’s okay to take a break, reach out to colleagues, or utilize available mental health resources. By fostering an open environment where we can discuss mental health without stigma, we can support one another and create a healthier workplace for all. Your mental well-being matters, and together, we can cultivate a positive and understanding atmosphere.

Retirement

We are excited to remind you of the invaluable opportunity to secure your financial future through our 401(k) and 401(k) Roth retirement plans. Enrolling in these plans not only helps you save for retirement but also offers several key benefits: 1. **Tax Advantages**: Contributions to a traditional 401(k) are made pre-tax, which can lower your taxable income for the year. With a Roth 401(k), contributions are made after-tax, allowing your money to grow tax-free, and qualified withdrawals in retirement are also tax-free. 2. **Employer Match**: BZI matches your contribution dollar for dollar up to 5% on either the regular 401(k) or the Roth401(k) or a combination of both. This is essentially free money that can significantly enhance your retirement savings. 3. **Investment Options**: Both plans provide a variety of investment options, allowing you to tailor your portfolio according to your risk tolerance and retirement goals. 4. **Compounding Growth**: The earlier you start saving, the more time your money has to grow through compound interest, which can lead to a substantial nest egg by retirement. 5. **Financial Security**: Enrolling in a 401(k) or Roth 401(k) is a proactive step towards achieving financial independence and security in your retirement years. We encourage you to take advantage of these plans and consult with our HR team if you have any questions or need assistance with the enrollment process. Your future self will thank you for the decisions you make today!

401(k) or Roth 401(k)

Easily access and manage your retirement savings through our 401(k) plan. With a secure online portal, you can view your account balance, adjust contributions, and choose from a variety of investment options to help you reach your retirement goals. Take control of your financial future today.

Time Off, Leave, and other Accommodations

Our company recognizes the importance of work-life balance and is proud to offer both paid and unpaid leave options to support your family time, medical needs, and holiday celebrations. Whether you require time off for personal or family-related matters, medical emergencies, or simply to recharge during the holidays, our leave policies are designed to provide you with the flexibility and peace of mind you need. We believe that taking time to care for yourself and your loved ones is essential for overall well-being, and we are committed to supporting you in achieving that balance.

FMLA & ADAAA

We value the diverse needs of our team members and are committed to providing support through the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Team members who require time off for qualifying medical conditions or need accommodations to perform their job effectively are encouraged to apply for these programs. Our HR team is here to guide you through the application process, ensuring that your rights are protected and that you receive the necessary support. We believe that fostering an inclusive workplace means making adjustments that enable all team members to thrive, and we are dedicated to assisting you in any way we can.

Paid Time Off

Unpaid Time Off/Personal Leave

Team members may request to be placed on unpaid leave or personal leave and maintain their benefits eligibility and their company seniority. When work is slow, but you’d like to return when jobs are available, or if you need extended leave to spend time for personal needs you can be away from work for a short amount of time, knowing you’re still a valuable member of our team.

Worker's Compensation

Workers' compensation is a crucial benefit that provides financial and medical support to team members who are injured or become ill as a result of their job. This program ensures that team members can access necessary medical treatment and receive compensation for lost wages during their recovery period. By offering workers' comp, we demonstrate our commitment to your safety and well-being, fostering a supportive work environment where you can feel secure knowing that assistance is available should an unexpected workplace injury occur.
