As society continues to change, the work force becomes increasingly diverse, and new legislation impacts the employer-employee relationship, companies must work hard to attract and retain talented employees. In order to stay competitive, many employers have begun to offer a wider range of benefits, including some that are less conventional than in years past. U.S. companies may be more likely to offer these cutting-edge benefits than European, South American, or Asian companies because there is little federal legislation in the U.S. with regard to government-paid health care or paid parental leave.

This provides another opportunity for U.S. companies to compete for talent by offering added benefits.1 This article will discuss some of these new, cutting-edge benefits, such as egg-freezing, adoption, and surrogacy as well as the underlying challenges that U.S.-based multinational companies face when rolling out these programs globally.
