Summary
This week Aaron Oaks, CEO of United Pet Care, joins Sally on The Granite.List Live to discuss the shifting view and expectations around pets and their care. Pets are quickly becoming the new dependents in the workplace, yet most employee benefits still overlook this key part of modern families. As expectations shift and competition for talent intensifies, benefits leaders face growing pressure to support employees and their pets—all without adding administrative burden or complexity.
