• An exciting and supportive new voluntary benefit that meets the overlooked needs of working families.

GoodTrust just announced its partnership with Employee Benefit Systems (EBS) to bring comprehensive estate planning solutions to union members across the country. This innovative new voluntary benefit addresses a critical yet often overlooked need, empowering working families to secure their legacies with ease and confidence.

Through this partnership, EBS will offer GoodTrust’s modern estate planning tools, including wills, trusts, powers of attorney, healthcare directives, and the Digital Vault, as part of their supplemental benefits package. Available as a voluntary benefit, this offering provides EBS’s union clients and their families with an affordable and accessible way to protect their loved ones, assets, and legacy.

"I believe estate planning should be accessible to everyone, regardless of health, wealth, or age," said Rikard Steiber, CEO of GoodTrust. "By offering this benefit, EBS is taking a significant step toward supporting the overall financial wellness of their members and their families."

EBS, known for its commitment to providing valuable and comprehensive benefits to union members, recognized the growing importance of estate planning in today’s modern workplace. The inclusion of GoodTrust in their benefits portfolio highlights their dedication to addressing the modern needs of their members and providing them with tools that go beyond core benefits.

“Union members work hard every day, and they deserve the peace of mind that comes with knowing their families and assets are protected,” said Jeff Grim, President at EBS. “Our partnership with GoodTrust gives our members access to a modern, easy-to-use estate planning solution that fits their lifestyle and helps them protect their future”. 

This partnership is set to launch immediately, with union members able to access GoodTrust’s estate planning tools through EBS’s platform. This new benefit represents a significant enhancement to the overall benefits package offered to union members, reflecting a commitment to innovative, supportive, and family-focused care.
