Employers looking to attract and retain talented employees in today’s tight job market are adopting family-friendly benefits to stand apart from their competition. They are implementing benefits in keeping with the values they want to promote, such as diversity and inclusion. As a result, fertility, surrogacy and egg/sperm donor benefits for single people and same-sex couples are gaining traction. Accessing affordable childcare is also a pressing concern, and employers are adding supports to ease the transition back to work and fill gaps in care as they arise.
