Nova Benefits, an employee wellness platform centred on corporate health insurance, has announced the roll-out of LGBTQIA+ or same-sex corporate health insurance cover for companies, said a statement.
The firm aims to provide companies with equal and inclusive high-quality employee wellness benefits. It is currently providing LGBTQIA+ corporate health insurance to several companies, including Snapdeal, SplashLearn, FlexiLoans Technologies, and Dev Synthesis.
Organisations have the responsibility to ensure employee wellness, along with taking charge of diversity and inclusion needs in the working environment. Similarly, when it comes to healthcare, employees and their families must be provided equal access, with no discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation or gender identity. However, standard health insurance plans do not consider relationships beyond heterosexual couples, making equal access to healthcare benefits a challenge.
