Employee Benefits

Group Life Insurance — a benefit your employees value and your business can afford.

Group life insurance is one of the most cost-effective benefits a small business can offer — and one of the most meaningful to employees with families. Basic group life is typically inexpensive and can be offered as an employer-paid benefit, with supplemental options available for employees who want additional coverage. Kain Carlson structures life coverage as part of a complete benefits package, not as an afterthought.

Life Insurance as a Retention Tool

For employees with families, employer-provided life insurance is a benefit with genuine financial meaning — and one that is difficult to replicate individually at the same cost. For ND and MN small businesses competing for talent against larger employers, offering basic group life levels the playing field at a cost that makes sense for businesses of any size.

Employer-Paid Basic
Basic group life is typically the most cost-effective employer-paid benefit available — often less than $10/month per employee for $50,000 in coverage — making it accessible for businesses of any size.
Voluntary Supplemental
Offering voluntary supplemental life lets employees choose their own coverage level at group rates they couldn't access individually — a meaningful benefit at zero additional cost to the employer.
Portability Options
Many group life plans offer portability — allowing employees to convert their coverage to an individual policy when they leave the company, without new medical underwriting.
Beneficiary Administration
Kain Carlson manages the administrative side of group life — beneficiary forms, coverage elections, and annual updates — so your HR process stays simple even as your team grows.
