How This Boss Makes an Impact for Children in Florida

CBRE’s benefits are designed to help employees and their families thrive. Whether employees are growing their family through pregnancy or adoption, or preparing for the costs of raising a new child, CBRE is there to support them. The company provides pregnancy and surrogacy support, as well as medical benefits for pregnancy and post-pregnancy. For adopting parents, CBRE provides adoption assistance up to $5,000 for eligible adoption-related expenses. Parents of newborns and newly adopted children are offered paid leave for bonding – 20 weeks for the mother or birthing parent and 12 weeks for the father or supporting parent. On top of this, lactation rooms are available in all CBRE offices.

Associates are also offered a health savings account, where CBRE contributes pre-tax money for healthcare and dependent care expenses, and an employee assistance program, where any member of the employee’s household is given access to confidential support resources for whatever they are going through.
