Insights
Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer just a futuristic concept; it has become a powerful tool reshaping how HR departments function.
From simplifying payroll to supporting strategic decision-making, AI is transforming HR into an essential driver of organizational success.
By leveraging the right technologies, companies can save time, improve efficiency, and foster a workplace that values both productivity and employee well-being.
Automating Administrative Tasks
For years, HR teams have been bogged down by repetitive responsibilities such as payroll processing, compliance reporting, and benefits administration. AI-driven platforms can now handle these functions with speed and accuracy. Automated systems reduce the chances of human error, ensuring employees are paid correctly and compliance standards are met. This shift allows HR professionals to dedicate more energy to people-focused initiatives, strengthening workforce relationships.
Enhancing Recruitment and Onboarding
Finding the right candidate has always been one of HR’s toughest challenges. AI-powered recruitment tools now streamline this process by analyzing resumes, matching candidates with job requirements, and even predicting future performance based on data patterns. Automated onboarding platforms take it a step further by guiding new hires through paperwork, training modules, and company policies, making the transition seamless. This integration improves retention rates and sets the tone for long-term employee engagement.
Improving Employee Engagement and Retention
AI also helps in monitoring and improving employee engagement. By analyzing feedback surveys, performance reviews, and even communication patterns, AI can identify warning signs of burnout or dissatisfaction. With these insights, HR leaders can take proactive steps to address issues before they escalate. The result is a healthier workplace culture that supports career growth, job satisfaction, and long-term loyalty.
Compliance, Privacy, and Data Protection
As organizations adopt AI tools, maintaining compliance and protecting sensitive employee data becomes critical. HR teams must ensure that AI-driven decisions comply with labor laws, anti-discrimination policies, and data privacy regulations. Establishing transparent processes builds trust with employees while reducing the risk of legal complications. For businesses already managing complex risks such as employment practices liability insurance (EPLI), AI can add additional layers of accuracy and oversight, helping ensure compliance with labor laws and workplace policies.
Practical Adoption of AI in HR
Employers interested in leveraging AI can start small by introducing tools for applicant tracking, automated payroll, or chatbots for HR inquiries. Over time, integrating advanced analytics and predictive tools can help align HR with long-term business goals. Just as companies invest in coverage like the best professional liability insurance to protect their assets, adopting AI responsibly safeguards the organization while supporting its most valuable asset: its people.
AI is transforming HR from a purely administrative function into a people-focused strategy that strengthens recruitment, engagement, and compliance. Companies that adopt AI wisely will not only save time and resources but also create more supportive and resilient workplaces.
As a leading insurance company, Tooher-Ferraris Insurance Group provides tailored solutions for individuals and businesses, ensuring peace of mind for today and the future.
New medications like GLP-1 receptor agonists, originally developed for diabetes and now widely prescribed for weight management, are reshaping conversations in health care. For employers, these treatments present both an opportunity and a challenge. While they can significantly improve employee health outcomes, they also carry high costs that may strain benefit budgets.
Tooher-Ferraris Insurance Group understands that effective benefits planning requires more than reacting to rising drug expenses; it’s about proactively structuring coverage to balance affordability with access. Our tailored employee benefits solutions in Connecticut help employers evaluate GLP-1 coverage, optimize PBM strategy and stop-loss, and control costs while safeguarding employee health.
Why GLP-1 Medications Matter for Employers
GLP-1 medications, including semaglutide-based drugs such as Ozempic and Wegovy, have been shown to reduce A1C levels, support weight loss, and lower risks for cardiovascular disease. The clinical outcomes are promising, particularly as obesity-related conditions cost U.S. employers more than $147 billion annually in lost productivity and medical expenses. Supporting employee access to effective treatments can improve long-term health, reduce absenteeism, and strengthen workforce performance.
However, these benefits come at a steep price. Monthly costs for GLP-1 medications can exceed $1,000 per patient, creating difficult decisions for employer-sponsored health insurance plans. The challenge lies in balancing improved care with sustainable cost management.
5 Considerations for Your Benefits Strategy
Below are five key factors to guide your benefits strategy and manage the impact of GLP-1 medications effectively.
-
Understand the Financial Impact
Employers need to assess how covering GLP-1 medications affects their overall health insurance plan spend. A cost analysis should account not only for prescription coverage, but also for potential savings from reduced hospitalizations and fewer obesity-related claims.
-
Explore Step-Therapy Programs
Some health plans adopt a step-therapy approach, where employees first try lifestyle programs or lower-cost treatments before GLP-1 prescriptions are approved. While controversial, this approach can help control costs while still offering access to the medication when clinically necessary.
-
Leverage Data and Benchmarking
Claims data and benchmarking tools can highlight utilization patterns and help employers compare their plan performance with peer organizations. This information supports evidence-based decisions on formulary design and eligibility criteria.
-
Promote Holistic Wellness Programs
Medication alone does not solve the broader challenge of obesity and related conditions. Employers should reinforce GLP-1 coverage with wellness initiatives such as nutrition counseling, weight management programs, and fitness incentives.
Integrating medication with supportive resources enhances outcomes and builds a culture of health.
-
Communicate Clearly with Employees
Employee education is essential. Confusion around eligibility, coverage limits, and copay requirements can lead to frustration. Transparent communication ensures employees understand the resources available and how to access them, improving satisfaction and compliance.
Balancing Cost and Care
There is no one-size-fits-all solution. Employers must weigh the immediate cost burden against the long-term benefits of healthier employees and reduced chronic disease claims. The most effective strategies combine financial controls with a commitment to employee well-being.

It often starts with a single click. An employee opens a convincing email, and within minutes, your company’s network is compromised. For too many businesses, this story ends with lawsuits, regulatory fines, and damaged reputations. In 2025, “good enough” cyber security is no longer enough.
To address this issue, Tooher-Ferraris Insurance Group supports businesses by integrating cyber liability coverage into their risk management plans, ensuring financial protection and faster recovery when digital threats strike.
Here’s a guide from our insurance experts on why forward-thinking organizations are pairing technical defenses with comprehensive cyber liability insurance.
The Rising Cost of Cyber Incidents
Cyber attacks are not just growing in frequency; they are becoming significantly more expensive. According to a data breach report, the global average cost of a data breach reached $4.45 million, with many small and mid-sized businesses lacking the resources to recover.
Even companies with strong IT controls face financial losses that extend beyond technology, including legal fees, customer notification expenses, and reputational fallout.
Why Cyber Liability Insurance Matters
While technology reduces the likelihood of an incident, no defense is foolproof. Cyber liability insurance is designed to absorb the financial shock when prevention fails. Coverage can extend to:
Data Recovery: Restoring lost or compromised information.
Legal Defense: Paying for attorney fees, settlements, or judgments.
Regulatory Fines: Covering penalties from privacy or data protection violations.
Notification Costs: Informing customers and providing credit monitoring.
Business Interruption: Replacing income lost during downtime.
Public Relations Support: Managing the reputational damage after a breach.
Without insurance, these expenses land directly on your balance sheet, potentially threatening business continuity.
Coverage Gaps to Watch For
Many businesses mistakenly assume their general liability or professional liability insurance covers cyber events, only to find exclusions buried in the fine print. Common gaps include:
Ransomware Payments: Some policies exclude extortion costs or only cover partial reimbursement.
Third-Party Data Loss: Coverage may not extend to vendors or contractors handling your data.
Cloud-Based Breaches: Incidents in hosted environments may fall outside traditional coverage.
Reputation Management: Limited or no funds for crisis communications.
Employers should review policies carefully with an experienced insurance agency to ensure coverage matches real-world risks.
Building a Proactive Cyber Security Plan
Insurance should complement, rather than replace strong technical defenses. Businesses must combine preventive measures with financial protections. A proactive plan includes:
Regular Risk Assessments: Identify vulnerabilities before attackers exploit them.
Vendor Management: Evaluate third-party partners with access to sensitive data.
Employee Training: Reinforce phishing awareness and data handling protocols.
Incident Response Planning: Establish procedures for fast containment and recovery.
Policy Alignment: Match insurance coverage to organizational risk profiles.
Strengthen Your Protection with Expert Guidance
Cyber threats in 2025 demand more than basic defenses. A single incident can overwhelm even the most prepared businesses if financial protections are missing. At Tooher-Ferraris Insurance Group, we specialize in tailoring cyber liability insurance to complement your security investments, close coverage gaps, and safeguard your long-term stability.
With over 90 years of expertise, our insurance agency helps organizations build resilience through research-driven risk management and comprehensive protection.
