Core Competency Spotlight: Benefits Administration
Transforming benefits administration into a human capital strategy
At Workpartners® we help our clients improve their bottom line by enhancing benefits’ performance, maximizing employee engagement, and improving workforce health and productivity.
We now have an enhanced, powerful tool to support employees in their benefits administration journey: the upgraded eBenefits® platform. The eBenefits technology has helped businesses improve efficiency and engagement since 2005. The platform transforms benefits administration from a chaotic annual event to a year-round, personalized process for both organizations and their workforce.

Products and Service Innovations
Updates to analytics tool offer a full view of employee health
In April 2022, Workpartners announced upgrades to its user-friendly Online Business Intelligence (O|BI)® analytics platform, delivering unprecedented opportunities for employers to look holistically at employee health care data and optimize benefit management and delivery.
O|BI works with a company’s existing technology platforms to examine key performance indicators and trends across an organization’s benefits programs. Traditional integrated services look only at medical and pharmacy claims, but O|BI also integrates analyses of absence, disability, well-being, compensation, and safety risk programs. This allows Workpartners to develop comprehensive, highly customized opportunities for employers to improve benefits, support employees, and control costs.
Improved wellness campaign and challenge platform
When developing a wellness incentive design, it is important to know that there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Our Take a Healthy Step well-being program offers scientific, evidence-based tools, programs, and strategies to help employees live healthier and feel better. The program uses the latest digital engagement technology, which allows employees to have a gamified, but personalized wellness experience. They can complete fun, engaging activities and challenges; browse trending topics; and engage in activities that organizations promote. Employees can also use social media-style features (such as liking others’ posts) through a messaging feed and easily track their progress toward completing levels and earning incentives.

Innovating in new areas
Every business faces unique challenges. That means every one of your clients—and every one of their employees—deserves personalized service.
All of our programs addressing time away from work, including absence, short term disability administration, ADA/ADAAA, and workers’ compensation, are delivered through top-of-the-line programs. We are uniquely able to provide integrated reporting across all employee absence, disability, and workers' compensation programs. This integration and data technology allow us to calculate return-on-investment and return-onvalue statements.
Workpartners can provide third-party administrative (TPA) services in Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey, Maryland, District of Columbia, West Virginia, and Virginia. We have been providing workers’ compensation third-party administrator services to public and private clients of all sizes since 1997. Our approach allows us to address data conversion, case management, physician peer review, strong analytical safety support, safety committee support, medical cost containment, OSHA reporting, and other complementary services for work-related claims.
Positioned to succeed
While we proudly make Pittsburgh our headquarters, we strive to work with brokers and consultants across the nation. We maintain additional operations throughout the United States, including our two Mountain West locations of Cheyenne, WY, and Loveland, CO.
We firmly believe that widespread success requires collaboration from all levels of an organization—starting with leaders. At Workpartners we have strong leaders who are dedicated to innovation. This is a boon for both our company and all of our partners. Our leaders support and empower us in continuing to expand across the country.
