Benefits
Accenture offers a comprehensive program including health/welfare plans, discretionary profit sharing plans, and 401(k) match/savings plans. Through Live Well at Accenture, employees can access services including back up dependent care and health advocate programs. The Accenture Active program allows our people to set health goals, access tools (trackers and apps), and rewards them for completing healthy activities and improvement in health through an innovative app. Hours That Help provides employees in need with additional paid time off through time donation by other employees. We have increased parental leave benefits in the United States, with a maternity leave of 16 weeks, a primary care giver leave of eight weeks, and the opportunity for employees to work locally for one year following their return from the birth of a child or adoption. This provides our people who choose to be at home with greater support and helps ease their transition back to work. We also pay for milk packing materials/shipping costs, make hospital-grade breast pumps available and offer online parenting education.
