A 2018 survey found the biggest barrier to businesses adopting a paid family and medical leave policy to be the limited understanding of a company’s return on investment. Panorama stepped in to fill this information gap with its new report, The Business Impacts of Paid Leave, which shares new research on the relationship between paid leave and workforce productivity.

This report serves as one of the few sources of data on the business outcomes of paid leave, demonstrating that offering paid leave to employees can be part of a running a profitable company and potentially boost workforce productivity.
