CARROT FERTILITY - Meet A Vendor
Shortlister hosted Julie Chavez, VP of Strategy and Alliances at Carrot Fertility, to share how full-spectrum family-formation benefits can support recruiting and retention and ensure the benefits you’re bringing to your clients are the most relevant for their employees and meet the full spectrum of forming a family.
EMPLOYEE DEMAND FOR COVERAGE IS ON THE RISE
Over the last decade, we witnessed a dramatic shift in the conversation around fertility. Support for diversity, equity, and inclusion programs and to lower healthcare costs are the main reasons why employers are continually looking to add fertility benefits to their benefits offerings.
- 77% of people would stay at their company longer because of fertility benefits
- 88% would consider changing jobs for fertility benefits
- 55% of employers are planning to offer fertility benefits by 2022 or 2023
Recent survey results and key data show that employees expect more financial and emotional resources, more open conversations, and better parent-friendly workplace culture.
