XPO adds fertility leave perk

This is an industry first for the UK and Ireland and applies equally to anyone in any relationship.

Lynn Brown, vice president – human resources – UK and Ireland, XPO Logistics, said: “We’re there for our people when they need us the most. We understand that fertility treatment is hugely stressful, so we are doing what we can to remove finance-related concerns.”

“Our people go the extra mile for the business and customers; we want to make sure we’re going the extra mile for them. This policy reinforces XPO’s employee support and benefits packages, which rank amongst the most progressive in the UK and Ireland,” Mrs Brown added.
