Up to six weeks of 100% Paid Parental Leave to bond with your new child.
New for 2027
Our paid parental leave policy will increase from 4 to 6 weeks for employees whose child’s birth, adoption, or surrogacy placement occurs on or after January 1, 2027, giving eligible parents more paid time to bond with and care for a new child. This benefit is available to all benefits-eligible employees who give birth or complete an adoption or surrogacy placement after completing 90 days of employment. You can take the time off in six consecutive weeks, or split the time and use it in two, three-week increments. Parental leave must be taken within 12 months of the birth or placement of a child and is in addition to any pregnancy leave taken under the Short-Term Disability plan.
