From Perk to Baseline: The 2026 State of Leave
Leave is one of the fastest-moving conversations in benefits right now spanning: strategy, compliance, cost, and employee experience all at once.
Paid parental leave used to be a differentiator. Now roughly 75% of employers offer it, that's triple the rate from a decade ago. It's the price of entry, and the programs that stand out aren't the most generous, they're the best run. The question is no longer whether you offer leave. It's whether your leave experience is clear, consistent, cost-aware, and ready for what employees expect next.
Tune in to understand the leave challenges quietly affecting your workforce:
-
The Differentiator Shift: “More Leave” isn’t what sets programs apart anymore
-
The Coordination Gap: PFML and disability coordination is quietly driving up cost across the board
-
The Blind Spots: Most programs miss what’s driving strategy now: caregiving, menopause, and mental health
-
The Retention Driver: What actually moves the needle isn’t leave breadth, it’s leave satisfaction
