National home remodeler and top workplace supports employees' healthcare needs amid new and pending reproductive healthcare laws

CHESTER, Pa., May 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Power Home Remodeling (Power), the nation's largest, full-service exterior home remodeling company, announced a new policy today, which will provide employees with up to a $5,000-lifetime reimbursement for travel and lodging associated with gaining medical care not available within 100 miles of an employee's residence.

The rollout of the new policy is in response to recent changes in reproductive healthcare laws enacted in several states, which impacts hundreds of Power employees across the U.S. Starting immediately, the new benefit — available to employees and their dependents who are on Power's healthcare plan — will help employees across the country access critical medical resources including but not limited to abortion, organ transplants, cancer treatment, and rehabilitation. The lifetime reimbursement maximum per family may not exceed $10,000. Airfare, mileage/gasoline costs, tolls, hotel fees, meal expenses, childcare, and other applicable costs determined by Power will be covered under the new reimbursement policy.

The announcement was made to employees during a company-wide virtual meeting by Power's Chief People Officer, Hollie Delaney. Delaney joined Power in 2020, and most recently served as the Chief People Strategist at Zappos.

"At Power, we uphold ourselves to put our people-first, and that includes protecting the health and well-being of our employees and their families," said Delaney. "So providing this healthcare travel and lodging reimbursement for our employees was an easy decision to make. This is not about politics, it's about people. It's about the responsibility we have as business leaders to create a safe environment for our employees, support their needs, and safeguard their rights. And I say this not just as a business leader, but as a woman, a mother, and a human being that simply just cares about people and their right to self-determination."

During the company-wide call, Delaney and other human relation leaders also announced additional health-related benefits available to employees including a maternity management program, an increase in fertility coverage, and most notably, unlimited counseling sessions through their Personal Assistance Services plan — which is available to all employees on day one of employment whether covered under Power's healthcare provider or not. All of which are part of the company's continued efforts toward cultivating a supportive, inclusive and equitable workplace, and fighting for that same support, inclusion, and equity outside of company walls.
