Given the baby boom in 2021, parental leave policies and benefits that support employees as parents have become a top priority. Most employers must comply with federal and state minimum requirements, but any measures beyond that — like paid parental leave and family-friendly benefits, for example — are typically offered at the employer’s discretion.
However, investing in employees’ abilities to care for their families can offer significant benefits for the employee, their co-workers, and the business as a whole. This investment can take a range of forms, from very small measures like updating policy language to larger ones like implementing on-site childcare. The right approach will balance the needs of the company with what working parents need to succeed.
