Tell Zoom and Deloitte: NO cuts to family leave!
Zoom and Deloitte recently announced cuts to their family-leave policies—a critical benefit that companies offer to ensure employees can take paid time off when welcoming a new child.
Deloitte’s cuts specifically target “support” roles like those in administration, IT, and finance—roles that already pay less and are more likely to be occupied by women. Now, those workers will receive only eight weeks of paid family leave instead of 16 weeks. Plus, Deloitte is reducing their overall paid time off by up to 10 days, ending pension accruals, and eliminating a $50,000 adoption and surrogacy reimbursement.
Zoom is cutting its paid family leave from 22 weeks to 18 weeks for birth parents, and from 16 weeks to just 10 weeks for other parents.
This sets a dangerous precedent, giving other companies permission to slash benefits and making it harder for parents in the workplace who are struggling to get by. Tell Zoom, Deloitte, and all major U.S. corporations: No cuts to paid family leave!
Why is this important?
The U.S. is one of the only countries in the world that does not offer a form of paid family leave as a federal benefit—a basic right that ensures parents are able to care for their health, their family, and their career.
Without federally mandated paid family leave, workers are left to rely on their companies to have strong protections in place. But in 2025, the share of U.S. employers offering paid family leave dropped 2 percentage points, to a measly 31%.
Corporations like Zoom and Deloitte have the resources to ensure that employees are treated with dignity and respect—including new parents. Tell them and other major U.S. companies to keep paid parental leave for all workers!
