Empathy Leave Support
Taking a leave of absence can involve more than managing paperwork. Empathy Leave Support is designed to help you navigate the personal and practical challenges that can come with taking a leave, from your initial claim through your return to work.
What Kind of Support Is Available?
Through Empathy Leave Support, you may have access to:
- Guidance throughout your leave: Follow a structured experience designed to help you understand what comes next.
- Daily check-ins and tracking tools: Keep track of information that may be important during your leave, including symptoms, medications, and how you are feeling.
- Wellness resources: Access breathing exercises, meditations, affirmations, and other tools to support your well-being during your leave.
- Practical leave resources: Find information and guidance related to benefits, finances, leave requirements, and returning to work.
- Back-to-work support: Use a Back-to-Work Checklist and other resources to help you prepare to return to your role.
- Human support: Empathy Care Team members can provide general leave-related support and help you navigate questions and resources throughout your leave.
How Do I Access Empathy Leave Support?
If Empathy Leave Support is available to you through your leave or disability claim, you will receive information about how to access the service as part of the MetLife claim process.
Empathy Leave Support is designed to complement the leave and claims process. It does not determine whether your leave is approved, your eligibility for benefits, or the amount or duration of your leave. Those decisions are made by BAYADA, the applicable benefit provider, or the appropriate government program.
