Employee Benefit Plan
Over 55 years ago, NRCA and regional associations across BC created a fund for affordable, comprehensive employee benefits. Today that’s the BCCA Employee Benefit Trust, the only benefits provider built for BC’s construction sector.
Why a benefits plan matters?
Employee benefits are no longer optional for employers who want to thrive
Construction employers face real competition for skilled workers. A strong benefit plan helps you attract the people you want, keep the ones you have, and show your team you’re invested in their wellbeing.
-
Attract the most talented employees
Top candidates compare total compensation. A solid plan puts you ahead of employers who offer wages alone.
-
Minimize employee turnover
Employees with good coverage stay longer, reducing the real cost of recruitment and retraining.
-
Keep a healthy workforce
Access to care means issues get addressed early, keeping your team on the job and performing well.
-
Boost employee productivity
Employees who feel supported and secure bring more focus and commitment to their work.

“I believe that offering a comprehensive employee benefit plan is not just a nice-to-have, but a must-have for any successful company. Not only does it attract top talent and help with retention, but it also shows that you value your employees and their well-being. A strong benefit plan can provide peace of mind and security for your team members, allowing them to focus on their work and be more productive. Ultimately, investing in your employees’ health and happiness is not only the right thing to do, but it also makes good business sense.” – Nicole Bryant, NRCA CEO.
