NEW YORK, Oct. 21, 2022 — Parento, a national insurance-based paid parental leave program, has been named to BenefitsPRO Luminaries Class of 2022 in the category of Humanizing Benefits.
“This year’s honorees exemplify how leading benefits professionals are moving their industries toward a brighter future and producing meaningful results in the areas that matter most to employers, employees, and the future of the benefits and healthcare landscape,” says BenefitsPRO Editor In Chief Paul Wilson. “Our team is excited to recognize these industry thought leaders and innovators as part of our inaugural LUMINARIES program.”
Parento is pioneering innovating the paid parental leave insurance industry by buildingsupplying an employer-sponsored program that works in conjunction with STD and PFL, providing integrated one-on-one employee support coaching, and leave administration.

This professional recognition program celebrates top benefits professionals and organizations that strive to transform and humanize the benefits business and set a bright example within the industry. Honorees are selected by a panel of industry experts based on how well they stated and achieved goals with regards to the nomination category; how impactful their work has been; how dedicated the nominee has been to furthering modernization and humanization in the insurance business; and the nominee’s commitment to the highest ethical standards as well as dedication to service and excellence.
“We’re thrilled to be recognized among other great companies working to serve the best interests of all employees across many different industries,” says Dirk Doebler Founder and CEO of Parento. “We believe paid parental leave is a fundamental employee need and we’re proud to continue transforming the landscape and making it more accessible and approachable for companies and their working parents.”
