People and Well-being

Enhancing Well-being through Work-Life Balance

Welcoming a new child—whether through birth, surrogacy or adoption—ranks at the top of a family’s most important and cherished moments. Thanks in large part to the efforts of the DuPont Women’s Network, DuPont’s recently updated New-Parent Leave policy makes it easier for new moms and dads to give these moments the attention they need and deserve. Some key features include four weeks paid leave for new parents, regardless of parent gender or family formation method, and twelve additional paid weeks of maternity leave for birth mothers.

Building Energy Efficient Homes

DuPont partners with Habitat for Humanity to provide safe, affordable, and energy-efficient housing for people worldwide. Each year, hundreds of DuPont volunteers help to build new houses or rebuild and revitalize neighborhoods in DuPont communities around the globe. DuPont also provides grant funding and donates our energy-efficient building products, including Styrofoam™ brand insulation, DuPont Weathermate™ Homewrap, and Great Stuff™ Insulating Foam Sealant.

Contributing to Workplace Health & Wellness

DuPont is dedicated to promoting safety, health, and well-being with our employees both on and off the job. This increases our ability to attract the best talent, while sustaining the vitality of our employees and the communities around them. We will continue investing in fitness, healthy eating, and mental health resources that help our employees thrive at work and maintain balance with their family needs, community obligations and personal interests.
