FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: March 28, 2013
CareWorks and Advantage Consulting Services Announce
New Business Agreement
Cleveland, Ohio, January 7, 2013 – Advantage Consulting Services, Ltd., will represent the services of CareWorks USA in the field of occupational and non-occupational absence management. A leader in disability management services, CareWorks USA empowers employers with outsourcing the tracking and administration of any leave of absence.
According to the Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM), Leave of Absence policies as required by the FMLA act cost employers approximately 8-percent of payroll. For an employer with 100 employees averaging $50,000 in wages, that adds up to $400,000 per 100 employees, annually. “While the costs of absences keep going up, the rules of complying increase along with them, “said Scott Vaka, Vice President of Sales and Customer Service, at the CareWorks Family of Companies. “We are pleased to add Advantage Consulting Services to our team. They have a strong track record of serving their clients in this and other areas of employee benefits,” he added.
Employers with 50 or more employees are required to provide protected leave in accordance with the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA). More information about this announcement and the services offered in this agreement can be found at www.advantageconsulting.net or by calling (216) 520-6377
Advantage Consulting Services has served Ohio organizations since 1997 with employment related consultation including self-funded employee benefits, workers’ compensation and pharmacy management.
