The Bridge Back To You
Keep your maternal talent healthy, engaged, and retained, reducing workforce costs while building employer brand strength
Retain critical talent
Continuous support from pregnancy to return-to-work reduces avoidable exits after maternity leave.
Maintain engagement during leave

Stronger teams, lower disruption
Healthier mothers mean smoother transitions, reduced absenteeism and a more resilient workforce.
Where traditional maternity benefits fall short.
Most maternity benefits are:
• Reactive
• Generic
• Limited to leave paperwork or EAP
They do not provide:
• Preventative maternal health screening
• Structured postnatal support
• Return-to-work pathways
That’s where attrition begins.
