The leave impact framework: Designing leave programs that deliver

The performance of a leave program doesn’t come from a single policy. It comes from how everything works together.

New research from Unum and DMEC shows that the real driver of retention, satisfaction and results isn’t what you offer, but how your entire leave and benefits system connects across the employee experience.

In this main-stage session, we’ll introduce a research-backed, actionable framework to help you evaluate and strengthen your leave program across six dimensions: benefit design, cost, compliance, communication, culture and measurement. You’ll see where gaps show up and how leading organizations are addressing them.

Attend the session to:

  • Evaluate how well your leave program performs across six key dimensions
  • Identify gaps that impact employee understanding, trust and outcomes
  • Apply a practical framework to assess and advance program maturity
  • Learn how industry leaders are achieving measurable results and where they’re still evolving
