PayPal India has announced the launch of its new employee benefit plan, ElderCare@PayPal.
According to the company statement, ElderCare is an in-house curated programme that facilitates holistic wellness for employees ’ parents and parents-in-law.
These parents may or may not be living with their children, may not have access to proper health and well-being services or face financial constraints in meeting such needs. Keeping all this in mind, the programme is designed to touch upon different elements of parental health, right from physical to emotional and financial health.

This translates to supporting their families – spouse, parent, children, especially across different stages of their life. Our new ElderCare initiative is another step towards this, over and above our suite of programs around the child and partner care.”
