Chambers for Innovation and Clean Energy (CICE) and EnergySage want to help you to go solar!

Going solar has a wide range of benefits and that’s great news! Whether economic, environmental, personal, or political, all of these benefits are fueling the United States’ solar power boom. Solar is a great way to reduce cost and increase profits. Businesses can significantly reduce or completely eliminate their electric bill. Companies are finding that “green” credentials are a powerful driver of consumer purchasing decisions, creating goodwill & improved business results.

The North Central Mass Chamber of Commerce and LifeLock® have teamed up to help safeguard your most valuable asset – your employees!

Since identity theft can take its toll on job performance, offering LifeLock® Identity Theft Protection as an employee benefit makes perfect sense. Victims of identity theft may spend 50 hours or more (often during business hours) fighting to clear their names.

From its inception, LifeLock has a simple and singular mission – to help protect their members from identity theft. Today, as the industry leader, LifeLock provides the most comprehensive protection available. If they detect their members’ personally identifiable information is being used, they will send an alert through their patented Identity Alert System. Additionally, they back up their service with a $1 Million Service Guarantee.

As an employee benefit, LifeLock is available at a 15% discount off of retail rates, when paid via payroll deduction.

Please take a moment to view the employer brochure, which includes information about the products and special pricing that you can offer to your employees.

We encourage you to view the LifeLock employer video which speaks to the content of the brochure. Additionally, it is easy for existing members to take advantage of the special pricing by simply signing up through the benefit offering.

With fast, simple and easy web-based enrollment, there’s no reason not to offer LifeLock® services to your employees today:

• Employees want it.
• No hard costs to employers.
• No participation minimums.
• Convenience of payroll deduction.
• Two levels of protection to choose from with special employee benefit pricing.
• Dedicated implementation and marketing support.

Enrollment Options – We can offer a couple of different options for enrollment. (1) We create a custom enrollment site (preview here) branded with your company’s name/logo. You would direct employees to the enrollment site to sign up for the benefit. (2) We can work with you to implement LifeLock on an existing HR platform.

Marketing Materials – We will consult with you on how you would like to promote and educate your employees about LifeLock. Typically this includes introductory emails and a digital brochure. These will be customized specifically for each employer, and the employer would handle the distribution and new benefit offering announcement. If you need any additional materials, we can work with you to accommodate any special requests.

Administration/Billing – When using the customized enrollment site, we are able to provide the employer with administrative access to view enrollments and pull payroll deduction reports in real time. Be sure to let us know if they would like us to capture an employee ID number for payroll purposes. Billing is handled in arrears. The bill is sent out mid-month for the current month’s premiums, and is due at the beginning of the following month.
