State regulations and paid leave programs are evolving rapidly. States now favor direct relationships with benefit recipients in an effort to combat fraud. In CA, the state updated several processes after freezing over 300,000 disability claims in 2022. Employees must now complete an identity verification process through ID.me, and CA EDD representatives will only release claim information to the benefit recipient directly.
Cocoon continues to innovate on the product experience for employees and employers to stay ahead of ever-changing state programs and regulations. Our powerful technology allows employees to design their leave in private based on eligibility, share their leave plan when they’re ready, and submit their claims to receive the benefits they’re eligible for. Powered by technology and supported by experts, employees are in excellent hands.
