Recent changes to state disability insurance means you may pay more for less

With the recent changes to California's state disability insurance (SDI) and PFL program, the cost to offer parental leave has increased.  Parento allows you to offer paid parental leave at or above the state's program offerings, for a fraction of the cost.

We can customize your plan in days.

Parento provided critical support

“As a public organization that does not contribute to disability benefits (and therefore bonding leave is not available through the state) and has a predominantly male workforce, we noticed that our employees were not taking much time off to bond with their new children. This was an issue we wanted to address."

Parento's Solution: to offer 6 weeks of fully paid child bonding leave to all employees, running after short-term disability for birth moms.
