JCDecaux UK has today announced it is partnering with Hertility and Parent Promise to offer their colleagues and their partners industry leading family friendly benefits. These partnerships are part of a wider package of enhanced benefits that support JCDecaux UK colleagues in achieving their personal and work goals at all stages of their life.
The partnership with Hertility will give JCDecaux UK colleagues access to progressive reproductive health care benefits; including an online health assessment and at-home blood test which can screen for reproductive and hormonal health issues and streamline employees to specialist care. The partnership with Parent Promise will help to support expectant colleagues and parents including giving them access to 1-2-1 midwife support eight hours a day.
We’re so excited to partner with Hertility and Parent Promise as part of our vision to support our colleagues’ growth personally and professionally. We know that investing in our colleagues' health and happiness pays commercial dividends too, ensuring our people stay, grow and continue to thrive with us. We believe it’s important as a responsible employer to send a message to our colleagues that not only do we support them with when and how they decide to start, or expand, their family, but we also want to help them on that journey. Let’s not forget, at its heart JCDecaux is a family-owned company!Carly Stanley People Director, JCDecaux UK
Hertility’s ‘at home’ blood test provided can support colleagues to identify hormonal changes, such as menopause and fertility information. This information can help our colleagues make informed decisions about their health and access any support they may need, including specialist care.
Last year, we partnered with JCDecaux to use the power of the public screen to open up the conversation about hormones and fertility. To now be empowering their staff to be able to take control of their own reproductive health, just a year later, is incredibly exciting and the sort of pace of change that the workplace desperately needs. JCDecaux’s commitment to reproductive health screening, education and policy review will make them the first Out-Of-Home media employer to become Reproductively ResponsibleTM, supporting their workforce all the way from menstruation through menopause. Reproductive health is starting to get the attention it finally deserves in the workplace - we can’t wait to see which progressive company will be nextDeirdre O’Neill Co-Founder of Hertility
Parent Promise was created to support expectant colleagues and parents in the workplace. This partnership will give JCDecaux UK colleagues access to a midwife eight hours a day, seven days a week via WhatsApp, monthly wellbeing check ins from their midwives, and monthly deliveries of wellbeing boxes.
Pregnancy and preparing for parenthood are periods of time that are filled with lots of emotion and anxiety. How people are treated during this time can make a huge difference to how they feel, cope and manage their pregnancy. People really want to see change and I really believe that workplaces have a huge opportunity to facilitate a better experience for new parents in 2023.We’re thrilled to work with JCDecaux, an inclusive and supportive employer, to deliver our pioneering, parental wellbeing support to their employees. We are really proud to work with a business who really care about their people.”Emma Jarvis CEO, Parent Promise
These newly introduced family friendly benefits form part of JCDecaux UK’s vision to support colleagues at every stage of their career. Their wide range of benefits cover topics like finances, health & wellbeing, time off work and personal development.
