PagerDuty Puts Employee Wellness First
Blog post from PagerDuty
PagerDuty has implemented comprehensive programs to support parental leave and employee wellness, reflecting its commitment to fostering a healthy workplace culture. Nearly 30% of PagerDuty employees identify as parents or caregivers, and the company’s BabyDuty program offers up to 22 weeks of paid parental leave for pregnant parents and 12 weeks for non-pregnant and adoptive parents in the US and Canada. A phased return-to-work policy and expanded financial support during leave further ease the transition back to work. The company also provides memberships to Cleo and Care.com for parental support, and backup care options are available. In response to employee stress during the COVID-19 pandemic, PagerDuty introduced Dutonian Wellness Days and a company-wide Wellness Week to promote rest and recharge, resulting in improved resilience scores among employees. Additionally, the company has enhanced its retirement matching contributions and adjusted health care costs to ease financial pressures. These initiatives demonstrate PagerDuty’s dedication to valuing its employees and continuously improving their work experience.
