Benefits Package ROI Calculator

Benefits ROI for roof-work companies: the turnover math

Roof work carries some of the steepest turnover and insurance costs of any trade. Crews are hard to recruit, harder to keep, and expensive to replace, and every churned crew member raises the odds of an incident on a high-risk job. A benefits package that holds a crew together is one of the few levers that improves retention and risk at the same time.

For a roofer, the experience modifier and claims history drive a large share of total cost, and workforce stability sits underneath both. This calculator translates lower turnover, fewer incidents, and faster hiring into dollars against your real crew and wage numbers, so you can see what a stronger package is actually worth to the business.

What drives the benefits case in this industry:

• Extreme crew turnover and the cost of constant rehiring
• Workers compensation premium and experience modifier
• Incident risk that rises with green, unstable crews
• Seasonal scheduling and off-season retention
