Benefits

We offer a broad range of competitive benefits to help employees meet their long-term financial goals, while balancing the demands of work and personal life. Benefits are available to full-time employees and their dependents, including children, spouses and same-sex partners. In addition to our comprehensive healthcare coverage, the following represents highlights from our benefits program.

Health
Clorox offers a comprehensive package of options for health and medical plans.

  • Medical (CDHP, Standard PP, Premimum PPO and medical and dependent care reimbursement plans)
  • Vision
  • Dental
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for professional and confidential counseling services

Disability and Life Insurance
We offer coverage in a range of areas including life, accidental death and dismemberment, disability, and business-travel accident insurance.

Retirement/Financial Planning

  • Cash balance pension plan: Each quarter, employees receive a credit equal to 3 percent of their pay, plus interest. Employees are fully vested after three years.
  • 401(k) plan with auto-enrollment: This plan allows employees to set aside part of their current income on a pretax basis every month. After one year of service, the company matches a portion of the employee's contributions.
  • Value sharing: Each year, the company may contribute funds, as determined by plan provisions, to a separate, tax-deferred account. Employees own 20 percent after two years, 40 percent after three years, 66 percent after four years and are fully vested after five years.
  • Investment-advisor service to help employees manage their retirement-plan assets

Work-Life

  • Alternate work schedules such as job sharing, telecommuting and flexible hours allow workers to have a say in their schedules where resources, performance and job requirements permit.
  • Summer hours: From Memorial Day through Labor Day (or December to March in the southern hemisphere), many of our offices close for business at 12:30 p.m. on Fridays to give employees an early start on the weekend.

Other lifestyle benefits include adoption reimbursement, discounts on parking and mass transit, and an employee assistance program that provides confidential counseling for personal problems.

Rewards and Recognition

  • Incentive compensation program that rewards eligible employees for individual performance and for supporting the company's goals. In addition, annual awards are given to outstanding employees in several areas such as marketing, sales and finance.
  • The Bravo program*: A non-monetary peer-to-peer recognition program that empowers individuals to reward the efforts and achievements of their colleagues by assigning them points that are redeemable for a wide variety of prizes.

*Program available only to U.S. employees.
