Rethink leaves of absence. They’re a benefit.

Share this event

And they should feel like a benefit.

The success of your organization relies on people. More than ever, the benefits that you provide for them – from leaves of absence to healthcare, retirement and more – are part of how you attract and retain the best talent. But are you seeing the return on the investment that your organization has made in benefits? Alight helps employers achieve a critical marketplace advantage, uniting leaves with other employee benefits, on an AI-powered platform that delivers an easy and intuitive experience for your employees.

The next two years could be a bumpy ride over the paid family and medical leave (PFML) landscape. Join us to learn about what is coming, what employers need to do to be prepared, and what they need to do to be ready for PFML benefits coming in 2025 and 2026. You’ll leave this session ready to tackle the multistate PFML mountains, armed with action items and information to consider as you make your decisions on whether to choose the state plan or a private plan and how to integrate new PFML programs into your current suite of leave of absence and disability programs.
