EMPLOYER PROGRAMS
FairShare enables employers to offer their employees better benefits at lower cost while earning 100% of the excess profits.
A Smarter, Fiduciary-Aligned Voluntary Benefits Strategy
FairShare offers a suite of voluntary supplemental insurance programs, including:
- Reduce benefits costs.
- Increase employee retention.
- Operate with transparency and alignment.
FairShare Insurance brings a first-of-its-kind benefits solution to employers — designed for today’s regulatory environment and tomorrow’s scrutiny.
Voluntary Benefits Are No Longer Outside ERISA Fiduciary Responsibility — Are You Protected?
What makes FairShare truly different is the surplus participation model.
Until recently, voluntary benefits were widely viewed as low-risk, employee-paid offerings with minimal fiduciary exposure. That assumption is now being challenged in federal court.
In December 2025, class-action ERISA lawsuits were filed against several national employers and their benefits advisors, alleging that voluntary benefits programs created fiduciary liability due to excessive commissions, poor benefit value, and employer involvement that triggered ERISA oversight. What many organizations believed to be outside the scope of ERISA is now being evaluated under full fiduciary standards.
The landscape has changed. Oversight has expanded. And fiduciary responsibility now extends further than many plan sponsors anticipated.
FairShare Insurance Company was built specifically to reduce these risks — not attempt to explain or defend them after the fact.
We provide a fully transparent voluntary benefits program designed around ERISA fiduciary principles. Our structure removes conflicted commission arrangements and aligns incentives exclusively with employee outcomes. There is no cost to the employer. Employees receive stronger coverage for lower premiums, and 100% of unused premium dollars are returned to benefit employees — creating measurable value, transparency, and defensible fiduciary outcomes.
If you prefer to maintain your current advisor relationships, FairShare works alongside your existing broker or consultant. Our role is not to replace trusted partners, but to provide an independent, fiduciary-aligned solution that strengthens your voluntary benefits strategy and helps ensure it can withstand ERISA scrutiny.
Reduce Your Fiduciary Exposure — Excess Premiums Are Returned to You
You are already offering voluntary benefits. The question is — are they structured to protect your organization and maximize value for your employees?
Under traditional insurance arrangements, carriers often retain a significant portion of employee-paid voluntary benefit premiums as underwriting profit — sometimes up to 50% — while paying substantial commissions. Those dollars leave your program and provide no direct benefit to your employees or organization.
FairShare transforms that model.
Through our innovative reinsurance structure, FairShare reinsures voluntary benefits offered by top-rated carriers to enhance coverage, reduce premiums, and return surplus premiums to your organization.
This creates a no-cost, no-risk funding source that can be used to:
- Enhance existing benefits
- Fund new benefits programs
- Reduce employee medical contributions
- Fund HSA contributions
- Reduce benefit administration expenses
Employees pay less. Coverage improves. Your organization gains a strategic funding mechanism. And your fiduciary position is strengthened.
