Organization Selection
Company Profile The organization that I have chosen to analyze the benefits plan is Delta Design. Delta Design is a Cohu Inc. organization. “Cohu is a leading supplier of test handling, burn-in and thermal solutions used by the global semiconductor industry, microwave communications and closed-circuit television equipment. In 1972, the name Cohu Electronics, Inc. was changed to Cohu, Inc.” (Cohu, 2008). Cohu Inc. is comprised of five major organizations. These organizations are Delta Design, Rasco, BMS, Ismeca, and Cohu Electronics. Cohu Inc. is headquartered in Poway CA. Delta Design has major offices located throughout the world including California, Philippines, and Singapore.
Benefits Program Delta Design has many different benefits included in their plan as you can see in the below table. These benefits are the standard for the semi-conductor manufacturing industry. There are a few issues with the way that the benefits are disbursed. One major issue that they have is that the Education Re-imbursement plan has too many unneeded levels. Another issue with their plan is in the Paid Holiday plan. Delta Design – Benefits | Medical | Dental | Vision | Flex Spending Accounts | Employee Assistance Program | 401k Retirement Plan
