About Us
Each year, a growing number of states are passing unique laws that provide government-facilitated paid parental leave benefits to employees.
None of these state programs pay employees 100% of their regular wages.
For employers who want their employees to earn 100% of the usual compensation after having a baby or when bonding with a newborn, the patchwork of state-run partial wage replacement programs is making it difficult to pay employees fairly.
At EquiLeave, we are on a mission to empower employers who want to pay employees fairly during their parental leave.
Many states have passed laws that provide partial wage replacement when employees go on leave to have a baby or bond with a newborn.
And many employers provide paid parental leave at 100% of an employee’s regular compensation.
Here’s the problem
Employers need to calculate the value of an employee’s state benefits so they can correctly supplement those payments up to 100% of an employee’s compensation. Otherwise, employees on leave could be over or under paid.
EquiLeave exists to help your company manage parental leave pay calculations.
Without careful planning, paid parental leave policies can be unnecesarily costly and inequitable
Imagine your employee, Joe, is in a state like California or New York that provides paid parental leave benefits.
If the employer has a paid parental leave policy and continues to pay 100% of Joe’s regular wages, he will be overcompensated during his leave.
Then, imagine your colleague Ruth is in a state without paid parental leave benefits and has a baby. Unless you correctly calculated Joe’s supplemental leave payments, she will be underpaid in comparison to the total compensation Joe receives from you and the state program
EquiLeave helps employers calculate their paid parental leave benefits across multiple jurisdictions so employees can be paid equitably.
