What you need to know

There are many paths to creating a family—and each comes with a range of emotions. Plus, there’s a lot to plan for and think about. That’s why Workday offers a range of benefits, from pregnancy support to new-parent resources and help with returning to work. And, if your family-building journey includes fertility treatment, surrogacy, or adoption, Workday will provide $25,000* to help you.

Fertility, adoption, and surrogacy support

Having a baby yourself is not the only way to expand your family. Workday supports every path to parenthood, every step of the way. That’s why we offer Workmates a lifetime allowance of $25,000* for costs related to fertility, adoption, and surrogacy.

To get started, compare your family planning support options.

Fertility

Your $25,000* lifetime allowance can be used for eligible fertility expenses, including:

  • In vitro fertilization (IVF) and intrauterine insemination (IUI)
  • Extraction, freezing, storage, and thawing of embryos, eggs, and sperm
  • Pre-implementation genetic testing and screening

As a reminder, we reset the lifetime benefit counter to $0 for all U.S. Workmates on January 1, 2022.

Surrogacy

Covered surrogacy expenses include:

  • Gestational carrier and agency fees and surrogacy insurance
  • Extraction and other medical costs related to IVF and impregnation of the surrogate
  • Egg or sperm extraction, shipping, transport, and donor compensation fees
  • Pre-implementation genetic testing and screening
  • Parent, child, and family counseling

Adoption

These adoption costs count toward your $25,000* allowance:

  • Application, home study, agency, and placement fees
  • Legal fees, court costs, and adoption insurance
  • Immigration, immunization, and translation fees
  • Transportation, meals, and lodging
  • Parent, child, and family counseling

Maven Wallet

Using Maven Wallet, you can easily upload receipts for eligible expenses and then be reimbursed through Workday payroll. Reimbursements are taxable, per IRS rules.

Just log in and tap Maven Wallet on the home screen of the Maven app.
