I’m excited to announce that our benefits program has made an important update. As of now, all employees will have 20 weeks of paid parental leave. The leave will be given to all parents who are birthing parents, non-birthing parents, adoptive parents, foster parents, and parents through surrogacy. We will support our employees in taking the time to bond with their child and to help their family adjust to the new situation. We understand that every family is different and that there are different ways to welcome a child. To better support our employees, we have updated our parental leave to better reflect our commitment to our employees' overall well-being. Employees that are on parental leave, have parental leave scheduled, or have concerns should reach out to HR. HR will be able to answer any concerns and will be able to give more information on our new policies. They will be able to help employees with leave requests, employed documentation, and leave coordination with other leave programs. It is important that managers work with HR to help plan coverage and transitions for employees who will be leaving. This will help employees take full leave and be able to disconnect. We believe that our new update will help our employees feel more supported and include more resources for our employees. If you have any questions please reach out to HR.

Hey team, Starting today we're bumping paid parental leave up to 20 weeks for everyone on the roster. No extra paperwork to qualify, if you're a birthing, non‑birthing, adoptive, foster or surrogate parent, the extra time's yours. We figured a longer break would give folks a real chance to bond, change diapers, figure out sleep schedules and actually recover before heading back. It's not just a perk; it's a way to say we care about the messier side of life that doesn't fit neatly into a 9‑to‑5. If you're already on leave, have a due date on the calendar, or just aren't sure what counts, ping HR. They'll send the new policy, walk you through the request form, tell you what paperwork they need and explain how the pay keeps flowing alongside any state or federal programs you might qualify for. Managers, please sit down with your people and HR soon, map out who'll cover the work, figure out hand‑offs, and make sure the leave actually feels like a break, not a "just‑waiting‑for‑my‑email" situation. Thanks for keeping the place supportive and for rolling with these changes. We're proud of this step and will keep hunting for more ways to make benefits feel like a real safety net. Any questions, just drop HR a line. Best, [Your Name]
