Meet Craig. Craig was able to beat a rare and difficult-to-treat cancer with the help of Amazon benefits.
Before his diagnosis, Craig was a pillar of health. His evenings were spent having quality time with his wife, daughter, and their dog, and on weekends, you could catch him practicing Krav Maga martial arts. All of that changed when he developed invasive squamous cell carcinoma – a difficult-to-treat type of head and neck cancer.
To support employees like Craig, Amazon has signed the Working with Cancer pledge to signify a continued commitment to providing a supportive workplace culture for employees with cancer. That includes providing leading health care benefits and a dedication to fostering compassion in managers and leaders across the company. A supportive work culture is just one way Amazonians can feel supported amid cancer diagnosis, treatment, and recovery.
Here are three ways Amazon supports employees and their family members impacted by cancer. ⬇️
🟣 In-house case management team dedicated to helping any and all cancer-related needs: We have a team dedicated to helping navigate work, care, benefits, and resources amid cancer diagnosis, treatment, and recovery.
🟣 World-class cancer resources and information: We partner with AccessHope to provide employees and their families access to the latest in cancer knowledge directly from National Cancer Institute – Designated Comprehensive Cancer Centers.
🟣 Covered travel and lodging to get expert opinions at leading cancer centers: Employees and family members can also use AccessHope to receive an expert evaluation from a center of excellence.
Through these benefits, Craig is happily cancer free once again and able to focus his time on his family and his work at Amazon Web Services (AWS) as a solutions architect. https://amzn.to/441DfAJ
