Our take
Most modern companies provide their employees with health insurance, mental health support, and childcare stipends, but fertility is not included in such benefit packages. Despite this, infertility affects men, women, and LGBTQ+ employees equally and causes great stress to those affected, showing a demand for employers that provide support for them in starting a family.
Apryl provides an employee fertility benefits platform for businesses, helping them to overcome inequalities by helping every employee to thrive in their career whilst planning a family, despite infertility. The company achieves this by providing a dashboard of anonymized employee data, using it to identify employees who need consultations, insurance, or reimbursement for family-building services such as fertility treatment or adoption.
Most companies already provide parental paid time-off or childcare stipends to their employees which shows support for them to start a family, but this presents inequality to infertile employees, a problem that Apryl has identified. Through its data-driven approach, insurance, and reimbursement offerings, the company shows potential to pioneer a new form of employee benefit whilst tackling workplace inequalities.
