Health screenings
Stay on top of your physical well-being with a range of screenings, including cancer screenings, food intolerance screenings and allergy insight testing. It is important to check this before with our broker because you may have to pay the deductible.
Dental
Protect your (and your family’s) teeth with public security service of dental insurance. Private insurance does not cover this service.
Time off
If your paid vacation days have already been taken and you require more days off, you can request a Leave without Pay (LWOP), which must be authorized by your manager in advance. You may not buy additional vacation days. Remember, your vacation days are a right by law. It is important to enjoy your vacation every year as vacation days are not cumulative.
Retirement and financial benefits
You have the right to retirement by law, since you contribute to the Social Security Fund.
Additionally, AECOM provides an optional private retirement plan. If the employee is interested, he must contribute 2% of the annual salary to the fund, and the company will contribute another 2% for the employee.
