Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
The EAP is designed to help employees and their families deal with issues affecting their jobs and personal lives. Independent, professional counselors can be contacted through a confidential toll-free number to work with you and family members and make recommendations for action and/or referrals.

Vacation
Employees enjoy up to six weeks paid vacation based on their length of continuous service. Vacation time may be taken in weeklong increments as well as in individual days to provide greater flexibility.

Holidays
L&W's holiday plan provides up to 11 paid holidays depending on location and local practice. Many locations provide flexibility by offering "Individual Holidays" that can be used for civic and religious holidays not already included on the schedule.

Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account
The pre-tax dollars you have deducted from your paycheck for this account may be used for dependent day care for children under 13 or elderly parents whom you support because they are physically and mentally incapable of self care.

Adoption Assistance
L&W offers an employee up to $10,000 in benefit reimbursement for specific adoption related expenses as well as parental leave time.
