In 2025, Canadian organizations are navigating an unprecedented period of turbulence: rising healthcare costs, the talent war, and weakened mental health are threatening team stability.
31 % of job seekers demand better benefits, and 66 % of companies rank controlling medical costs as a top priority.
In the face of these challenges, most employers are still juggling legacy systems that fail to deliver personalization and predictability. Segic steps in with its TPA + Marketplace cloud platform, developed over the past ten years to empower brokers and transform the employee experience.
