Partnership Empowers Companies with AI-Driven Recommendations for a Simpler, More Flexible, and Personalized Employee Benefits Experience
Empathy, the technology company transforming how the world plans for and navigates life’s hardest moments, today announced it has been named a Workday Wellness partner. Empathy Loss Support™, an innovative blend of advanced technology and human-first support for bereavement, and Empathy LifeVault™, a digital legacy planning and organization tool, will integrate with Workday Wellness, empowering employers with AI-driven recommendations to improve benefit offerings and streamline their benefits administration.
Workday Wellness is an AI-powered solution that revolutionizes employee benefits experiences by offering a real-time view into the benefits and wellness offerings employees use and value most. This partnership will deliver greater administrative efficiency for employers and provide actionable insights that maximize engagement with both employers and employees. Employers will gain powerful tools to measure effectiveness of their benefit offerings and dynamically adapt those benefits to better meet their employees' needs.
Empathy’s platform provides personalized emotional, practical, and administrative assistance through major life moments, like the loss of a loved one with Empathy Loss Support™, and intuitive legacy planning with Empathy LifeVault™, which allows users to create, store, and share plans and vital documents such as wills, accounts, and final wishes. The urgency for more responsive, life-event-centered benefits is reinforced by findings from Empathy’s recent 2026 Workplace Benefits Report, which revealed bereavement as the clearest opportunity to boost utilization, engagement, and real impact from life-event benefits. The report found that 84% of employers plan to expand and invest in bereavement support this year, while 95% of employees say bereavement-related benefits are valuable to them at work.
"Being able to support employees at the moment they need it the most is paramount and what today’s employees expect from their company’s wellness offerings," said Yonatan Bergman, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer at Empathy. "As a Workday Wellness partner, we will directly tackle this challenge by making it easier for employers to offer comprehensive bereavement and legacy benefits, and for employees to engage with these programs more effectively.”
