Anthem has announced new and expanded benefits to support associates, the company said.
The expanded benefits include the following:
To recognize the unusual circumstances and to help put associates´ mind at ease, Anthem is offering up to 80 hours of paid emergency leave for qualifying needs — including if associates are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19, or are caring for young children whose schools have been closed. We are also expanding the use of sick time to include caregiving related to COVID-19.
To support the transition of many of our associates who will be working from home, hourly associates who do not currently have Internet access will be reimbursed for installation and monthly Internet service.
To support our associates´ physical and mental health, we are offering free workouts through our health and wellness app, Engage, and through other fitness tools, such as Wellbeats.
The safety, health and wellbeing of our associates remains our top priority as we face these challenges together, and continue our work in support of those we serve.
