TruHearing Survey Reveals That Few Employers Offer Hearing Benefits, Despite High Demand Among Employees
According to a recent survey from TruHearing, the market leader in hearing benefits, almost all of the general population of employees surveyed (94%) agree that it is at least somewhat important for employers to offer hearing benefits as part of their overall employee benefits package, and more than half (53%) feel it is important or very important.
As health and wellbeing are more widely prioritized, many companies have instituted programs and opportunities to benefit employees’ overall wellness, most of which fail to address hearing loss. Employees surveyed were more likely to consider hearing benefits a “health benefit” than offerings like wellness programs and employee assistance programs, yet hearing benefits are not nearly as common.
