Instead of paying its employees time off or travel expenses to get an abortion, the US company PublicSq will offer its workers a bonus if they have a baby or adopt a child.
“We think that ultimately a company is only as strong as the families that built it, and then for us, we’re a pro-family company,” he said. “We’re unashamed about that. And we’re actually the largest marketplace in the country of pro-family businesses.”
Seifert explained that he sees the world going in a direction that is “anti-family” and called out companies that are offering abortion benefits to their employees such as Patagonia, Amazon, and Target.
“So we thought, what better way to express this value that’s core to our beliefs than actually putting some money behind it, putting our money where our mouth is,” he continued.
The company will offer a $5,000 bonus to any employee who has a baby or adopts a child. The bonus will be given upon the birth of the child. If adopting, the bonus will be given upon the initiation of the adoption process because, as Seifert emphasized, “adoption fees can be exorbitant.”
