Reducing Labor Costs, Bid Costs and Employee Benefit Costs on Government Work webinar
Dramatically improve your company’s bottom line
The Mason Contractors Association of America (MCAA) will present Reducing Labor Costs, Bid Costs and Employee Benefit Costs on Government Work on Wednesday, May 14, 2014, at 10:00 AM CDT.
Many contractors performing government work pay the fringe benefit portion of the prevailing wage as additional cash wages, believing it’s the easiest way to comply with the law. But allocating the fringe amount to a bona fide benefit plan or plans results in significant cost savings, and can dramatically improve a company’s bottom line. Benefits that might be included in a bona fide benefit plan are retirement, medical, dental, vision and life insurance plans.

Mr. Allen has over 20 years’ experience in the employee benefits industry holds 2 professional designations, Certified Financial Planner (CFP) and Chartered Retirement Plan Specialist (CRPS), from The College For Financial Planning.
