We understand that families form in many different ways, which is why we offer several benefit options to new and future parents — and “pawrents” — like Paid Parental Leave, fertility, adoption, and surrogacy reimbursement, and pet insurance.

Paid Parental Leave

Our Paid Parental Leave program allows you to take up to two fully paid weeks away from work to care for and bond with your new child. This benefit is extended to mothers and fathers, and can be taken in addition to other leave programs to maximize this special time with your newest family member.

Grow your family your way

Adding a new member to your family can be an emotional and financially-significant decision. At BAE Systems, we believe that cost should not be a barrier to love, which is why we now offer both the WINFertility Program and the Adoption and Surrogacy Reimbursement Program.

WINFertility

WINFertility works with some of the nation’s leading reproductive endocrinologists and pharmacy benefit managers to deliver effective treatment and options to build your family. If you’re enrolled in a Cigna medical plan, you can receive up to $20,000 toward fertility medical treatment, including any medications prescribed for treatment.

Adoption and Surrogacy Reimbursement Program

All BAE Systems employees are eligible to receive reimbursement of up to $30,000 for surrogacy or adoption expenses. Eligible expenses include:

• Agency fees
• Attorney fees and other legal costs, including court fees
• Travel expenses incurred in conjunction with the adoption or surrogacy

Pet Insurance

In addition to covering human family members, we also offer health insurance for furry, feathered, and scaly loved ones. Protect your pet’s health with flexible plans through Nationwide. Nationwide’s plans cover cats, dogs, birds, and exotic pets. Costs vary depending on type and age of your pet.
