Confronted with soaring benefit costs combined with the competitive need to provide benefits to attract and retain employees, a Texas-based energy company struggled to administer its employee benefit plans. The Wortham benefits team quickly stepped in and devised a cost-effective plan that offered a wide-ranging array of benefits. As the company expanded with new operations overseas, the Wortham group continues to support our clients with benefit plans for employees and their families in Africa, Latin America and elsewhere around the world.

More than 400 companies count on Wortham’s employee benefits team to develop innovative strategies that are tailored to meet the unique needs of their organization. Our staff of professionals and technicians takes the time to understand our clients’ employee base, their business philosophy, operations and concerns. We work closely with clients’ human resources departments and senior management to develop benefits choices that match their requirements.

At Wortham, we have experience in designing, placing and servicing a broad scope of group insurance plans, including:

  • Medical, dental and vision care
  • Group life and short and long-term disability
  • Accidental death & dismemberment

  • Travel assistance
  • Voluntary and supplemental programs
  • Health savings accounts and health reimbursement accounts
