Our employees are our most valuable assets at Security Benefit. The work they do is central to our success. We offer a comprehensive benefits package that recognizes the importance of engagement and workplace satisfaction, as well as the health and financial well-being of employees and their families. We currently offer a flexible work environment, which may include a hybrid work schedule (three days in the office) or, in some areas, fully remote opportunities.

Mental Health
Security Benefit offers many avenues to support the mental health of employees and their dependents. In addition to behavioral health services within the medical plan coverages, the company also partners with Modern Health to provide access to digital courses and meditations and one-on-one sessions with a coach or therapist. The company engages with Wellthy, offering family support services to assist caregivers with managing care plans and advocating for loved ones. Additional confidential guidance and counseling services are available through the company’s Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
Life Insurance
Employees are provided with employer-paid Basic Term Life Insurance and Basic Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) insurance. Additionally, employees can elect insurance for Supplemental AD&D, Optional Term Life, Dependent Life, and Spousal Optional Term Life.
Tuition Reimbursement and Industry Training
Security Benefit offers tuition reimbursement and industry training for employees who want to further their education at accredited colleges or universities in an area of study related to their job or another position within the company.
Full-time and part-time employees who are benefit eligible and scheduled to work at least 20 hours per week with one year of service can participate.
The company will provide reimbursement for tuition, including required course fees and books, for any passing grades up to $5,250 per calendar year. The rate of reimbursement is based on the grade received. A and B = 100% and C = 75%. There is no reimbursement for grades below a C. Reimbursement is 100% for “passing” when a course is Pass/Fail only.
401(k)
Security Benefit's Profit Sharing and Savings Plan offers an excellent source of retirement income while providing employees the opportunity to participate in the company’s growth and progress while saving on a tax-deferred basis.
Upon hire, eligible employees may contribute a percentage of their pay on a pretax or post-tax basis to their Profit Sharing and Savings Plan Trust Account. Currently, the company will match 100% of the first 5% of eligible earnings contributed. Employees are also immediately eligible for the discretionary profit-sharing contribution. The company match and profit-sharing vest 50% after one year of service and 100% after two years of service.
