SICA’s Employee Benefit Plan
Why having a benefits plan is important?
BCCA Employee Benefit Trust is SICA’s plan. Is it yours?
“Meeting the needs of employees is essential for our members’ success. Employee benefits are no longer optional for an employer who wants to thrive, which is why SICA offers this service to members.” – Clifford Kshyk, SICA CEO.
Over 50 years ago, the Southern Interior Construction Association and other regional construction associations across BC created a fund to provide affordable and comprehensive employee benefit plans to SICA members – the SICA Benefits Program. This program has grown and evolved over the years into the BCCA Employee Benefit Trust, the organization that administers the benefits plan.
We understand the importance of health and wellness for you, your employees and their families. We also know that employee benefits are an essential commitment from employers to recruit and retain valued employees. That is why SICA provides our members access to a comprehensive, affordable, and cost-effective benefits program.
Who uses our benefit plan?
