Designs and runs employee benefits and leave — health and retirement plans, leave policy, cost and renewal, and the administration that keeps them compliant. Use this to design or review a benefits package, prepare for a renewal, write leave policy, handle a leave request, or decide what benefits are worth their cost.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Benefits and leave Benefits are the second largest people cost after salary and the one employees judge most directly. `people:compensation-and-leveling` covers pay bands and leveling; this covers everything else in the package. **Benefits and leave are heavily regulated and jurisdiction-specific — in the United States, ERISA, COBRA, ACA, FMLA and their state equivalents, with state family-leave and sick-leave laws differing substantially. Plan design and administration need a qualified benefits broker or employment counsel. This structures the decisions and names what to ask.** ## Design for what people actually value Benefits budgets are routinely spent on things that survey well and are used rarely, while the things people quietly need are underfunded. The reliable pattern: health coverage quality, retirement match, and real time off dominate perceived value nearly everywhere. Beyond those, ask rather than assume — a young workforce and one with school-age children value very different things, and the difference is large enough to be worth measuring. Watch utilization. A benefit nobody uses is either badly communicated or badly chosen, and the two …

How to install
mdr add cbrock84/headcount/benefits-and-leave@sha256:5ee8f637edada0a2The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260916.e72e404, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
