The 2026 edition* reveals a benefits landscape shaped by rising costs, evolving workforce needs and a growing emphasis on innovation and sustainability.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nWith escalating medical and pharmacy costs, employers have moved cost-containment, for both their organizations and their employees, to the top of their strategic priorities list. In the inaugural 2025 edition of the survey, employers ranked \u2018attracting and retaining a competitive workforce\u2019 as their top priority. Some of the popular strategic cost containment initiatives include evaluating stop-loss plan design, conducting audits and partnering with digital health solutions to enhance plan transparency and effectiveness.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nDespite the focus on cost control, employers remain committed to supporting employee well-being. A majority (77%) say well-being programs are part of their healthcare strategies, and 78% of this cohort plan to increase related budgets. Parental leave enhancements are also on the rise, with 71% of employers offering paid leave beyond statutory requirements.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cEmployers are taking decisive action to manage rising health care costs, from rethinking plan design to adopting digital care solutions and more rigorous pharmacy management strategies,\u201d said Chana Bieker, senior vice president \u2013 benefits, national account leader at Brown &amp; Brown. \u201cAmid inflation, economic volatility and shifting social expectations, our survey shows organizations are prioritizing cost control more than ever. At the same, they are utilizing available budget to reinvest in employee well-being in diverse ways, such as more inclusive benefits and expanded parental leave.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAmidst the ever-growing popularity of GLP-1 drugs for weight loss, the survey also highlights the continued struggle for employers trying to balance access and cost. Nearly half of respondents cover GLP-1s for weight loss (48%), with the vast majority of this respondent group planning to continue coverage over the next one to two years (89%). However, for those that do cover GLP-1s for weight loss, more than six in ten have restrictions in place (63%). A significant percentage of these employers have restrictions beyond prior authorization, such as having to meet certain clinical criteria above and beyond FDA guidelines (49%).\n<\/p>\n<p><b>*About the Survey<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nThe second annual Brown &amp; Brown Employer Health and Benefits Strategy Survey, 2026, gathered responses from 1,241 employers.
