Look after the heart of your business by providing a cancer support benefit that enables your people and organisation to thrive

The workforce is more affected by cancer than ever, with the incidence of cancer and cancer survivorship both increasing1.
A cancer diagnosis impacts the entire organisation, which is why we have support and education programs that not only look after the affected employee, but the wider team.
Our programs help people and organisations affected by a cancer diagnosis to thrive. And in doing so, we make organisations more productive, supportive, and inclusive.

Our three core offerings work in tandem to deliver effective results.

We deliver an accessible curriculum with digital learning assets based on clinically-proven cancer survivorship principles. With CancerAid, your employees gain access to a wealth of knowledge via calls, email, web, text and the award-winning CancerAid app
During and after implementation, we support your leadership through engaging content to assist you in shaping a supportive work environment for employees with cancer.
Launch a support benefit that has real impact. We look after your affected employees, as well as their family, colleagues, and the Human Resources department.
Meaningful support programs help organisations attract top talent, keep them happy and productive, and decrease employee turnover.
The program is well paced and the timeframe between the different modules is flexible. I particularly enjoyed talking on a regular basis with my Cancer coach, who was very supportive and professional. I would recommend the Cancer Aid Coach program to anyone who are on a personal cancer journey.
The tips and tricks to make it all a bit easier has been helpful and also to know what other people are going through. I really enjoyed reading the modules and articles - knowing that there is support available to you and the information is there. The modules covered were all very relevant and the coach was very knowledgeable.
Thank you!
The program has been very beneficial and nice to be able to speak to someone and get given the information. Having that info does make a real difference. The program has given me direction as to what other support services I can access and it's good for people to be aware of these.
