PC Chamber launches employee benefit program

The Park City Chamber of Commerce/Convention and Visitors Bureau has announced the launch if an employee benefits program for its members. The initiative, announced at the chamber’s recent annual meeting, is a health insurance collaboration between Park City Chamber and the Heber Valley Chamber of Commerce. The new program offers healthcare coverage options to chamber members. Employers with as few as two employees are eligible for these benefits covering nearly 14,000 employees of the chambers’ 1,000 members.

“We are thrilled to offer this new benefit program to our members,” said Jennifer Wesselhoff, president and CEO of the Park City Chamber & Visitors Bureau. “Affordable group healthcare insurance is unattainable for many of Park City’s small businesses and this new chamber-sponsored employee benefit program will give hundreds of small businesses a new option for their employees. This program is a reflection of our dedication to fostering a community where businesses and their employees can flourish and reinforces our belief that a healthier workforce contributes to a stronger and vibrant city.”

“By arming employers with the tools to provide comprehensive health and other ancillary benefits, we not only support the physical and mental well-being of our workforce, but also strengthen the foundation of the local economy, ensuring a brighter future for us all,” Wesselhoff continued.

The program offers options for medical, dental, vision and other ancillary benefits and even includes pet insurance, Wesselhoff said.

“In today’s competitive business landscape, offering robust employee benefits is more important than ever. While many businesses often struggle to offer these much-needed life services, the chamber-sponsored employee benefit program arrives as a channel of support, offering a streamlined and cost-effective solution,” said Scott House, vice president of partner services at the chamber. “By collaborating with the Heber Valley Chamber of Commerce, we are collectively addressing a pressing concern and allowing businesses to focus on what they do best.”
