What You Need To Know
When life gets busy, it’s easy to focus only on what’s right in front of you and put everything else on hold. At Republic Services, your benefits are here to help you create space for what matters most, whether that’s recharging, supporting your family, staying well, or planning for the future.
Make Space to Recharge
Time away from work isn’t just about stepping back—it’s about coming back with new focus and energy. Your benefits make it easier to take meaningful time for yourself:
- Paid time off gives you the flexibility to step away, travel, or take care of personal priorities.
- Holidays help you pause and spend time with the people who matter most.
- Well-being resources help you maintain your physical and mental health throughout the year.
By planning ahead and taking time when you need it, you can return feeling refreshed, focused, and ready for what’s next.
Make Space for Your Family
From school schedules to everyday responsibilities, life at home can get busy—fast. Having support in place can make all the difference. Your benefits are designed to help you stay organized, reduce stress, and feel more in control of your day-to-day responsibilities:
- Dependent care flexible spending accounts (FSAs) help you set aside pre-tax dollars for eligible childcare expenses, like camp and after-school care.
- Family leave and paid parental leave give you time to care for loved ones and be present for life’s most important moments.
- Employee discounts help you save on everyday purchases from school supplies to household essentials.
When you have the support you need at home, it’s easier to stay focused, feel balanced, and take on whatever comes next.
Make Space for Seasonal Well-being
As routines and seasons change, it’s a great time to refocus on your health. Planning now can help you and your family stay well through the busy months ahead. Preventive care is one of the easiest ways to stay ahead of potential health issues. Use this season as a reminder to:
- Schedule annual physicals for you and your family
- Stay up to date on vaccines, including flu shots
- Take advantage of preventive screenings based on your needs
- Book appointments early before schedules fill up
Many preventive services like your annual physical, routine screenings, and immunizations are covered at 100% when you use in-network providers through your Republic Services medical plan.
Make Space for Your Future
It’s easy to focus on today but small steps now can make a big difference over time. Your benefits are designed to help you build financial security and prepare for what’s next.
- The 401(k) savings plan makes it easy to set aside money for retirement through payroll deductions and a generous matching contribution from Republic Services.
- The Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) gives you the opportunity to purchase company stock helping you build long-term financial value as you invest in the company’s future.
- Additional protection options like life and AD&D insurance, auto and home insurance, and identity theft protection can help you safeguard what matters most and plan for the unexpected.
Whether you’re just getting started or building on what you’ve saved, taking action today can help create more confidence and flexibility for the future.
