There are some benefits that are required by law, but most are offered by companies in an attempt to draw in more talented employees. Companies often give perks such as paid vacation time, construction employer cars, or free travel benefits as part of their compensation packages for employees. Often, employees with families are given health benefits and dental coverage in order to keep construction executives satisfied and productive. The money that can be saved by having a benefits package is something that should be considered by every individual that is in the market for a job. For example, a job that pays $80,000 per year but, offers no benefits, may not be compensating an employee for their work as much as a job that pays $75,000 dollars per year but offers health insurance, dental coverage, and paid vacations. Therefore, job seekers should not only look at the base construction salary of a job, but the benefits that are provided as well.
