Connecting cultures
Unum has developed educational materials written with cultural sensitivities and needs in mind — such as family and social values. Our Spanish benefit communications can help you ensure your benefits package meets the needs of your diverse workforce.
Bridging language gaps
Do you serve a workforce that is increasingly bi-lingual? Unum goes beyond translation to bridge language and cultural gaps.
The number of Spanish calls Unum handled in-house tripled between 2005 and 2007, according to our company's internal data. An ethnically diverse workforce has varying cultural views on benefits. Many employees may come from countries where benefits are provided by the government or they may now have more assets that need protection.
