Tax credit money for employees boosts retention

LeadingAge Ohio continuously strives to enhance the benefits of your membership, and is pleased to announce a new opportunity of substantial benefit to members and staff with National Enrollment Services (NES). NES assists members with employee-earned income tax credits and voluntary benefits, designed to enhance workforce retention and lower workers’ compensation costs. NES offers a program that provides the opportunity to help recover increased monies from the government for lower paid employees through the IRS Earned Income Credit laws at no cost to the organization.

Additionally, the federal government will refund any earned income credit not claimed by employees on tax returns for the last 3 years. NES assists employees in determining if they qualify for such a refund, which could be as much as $1,000 per year. Timing is crucial, as employees are struggling financially during this very difficult period of the COVID-19 pandemic.

NES has also designed a low-cost voluntary benefits package for healthcare and senior living employees and their family members who normally cannot afford insurance. This program is proven to lower workers’ compensation costs and will be offered to employees at the time of their consultation with NES. 

To learn more about NES or to request their services, contact Howard Labow at 800-966-6637 extension 239, or email hlabow@nesbenefits.com.
