[quote=Anonymous]It seems like it could be tricky from the company's perspective. Say they agree to give you the equivalent of the employer's contribution to a the health insurance plan in the form of a higher salary. What if you decide later that you want the insurance after all? Can they legally deny you the coverage that they provide to every other employee because you negotiated a different deal? They would have to write a special employment contract just for you and somebody in HR would have to keep track of the special arrangement. And then what if another employee decides she wants to be compensated because she doesn't use the transit benefit (or whatever) the employer offers? Most employers offer a suite of benefits and employees take advantage of some but not others. I have never heard of an employee getting the cash equivalent of a benefit if she doesn't avail herself of it. [/quote]
