AUSTIN, Texas--(Business Wire)--
Fringe Benefit Group, an industry leader in group benefit plans designed
specifically for hourly and part-time workers, today announced the launch of its
new Web sites (www.fringebenefitgroup.com and www.thecontractorsplan.com). The
completely redesigned Web sites are designed to serve as educational resources
for insurance agents and government contractors, especially the companies
bidding on the additional supply of prevailing wage jobs created by the American
Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA). 

Fringe Benefit Group (www.fringebenefitgroup.com) has specialized in providing
bona fide benefit plans to prevailing wage workers, including Davis-Bacon and
Service Contract Act (SCA) contractors, for more than 30 years. Through The
Contractors Plan product and Total Fringe bundled administrative solution,
Fringe Benefit Group offers retirement plans and major medical, dental, vision
and life insurance designed specifically for government contractors who work on
Davis-Bacon and SCA jobs. 

"We are the prevailing wage experts. We were the first company to offer benefit
plans for prevailing wage workers and we focus exclusively on the government
contractor marketplace. Our new Web sites enable us to share our resources and
expertise with current and potential customers, as well as the insurance
advisers we work alongside," said Adam Bonsky, executive vice president of
government markets for Fringe Benefit Group. 

Davis-Bacon and SCA contractors turn to Fringe Benefit Group because of the
value they receive. TheContractorsPlan.com and FringeBenefitGroup.com offer an
interactive calculator that computes a company`s potential payroll savings.
Brokers who partner with Fringe Benefit Group can access customizable brochures,
presentations, articles featuring The Contractors Plan, newsletters, industry
news and more. 

Resources available on FringeBenefitGroup.com include educational information
and links to legislative updates regarding the economic stimulus package (ARRA),
Davis-Bacon Act, Service Contract Act, state prevailing wage laws, bona fide
benefit plans, wage determinations, registering for prevailing wage jobs, and
the Department of Labor auditing process. TheContractorsPlan.com includes
similar material, as well as specific information for contractors about bidding
more effectively and educating employees about their prevailing wage benefit
plan(s).
