LOS ANGELES, Oct. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Since its launch, Ask Que™ AI Leave Planner has seen robust adoption signaling that employees are actively seeking a convenient, self-guided path to understanding their leave options. There have been nearly 3650 employee conversations representing an increase of 53% over the past month.
Ask Que™ AI Leave Planner lets employees have a personalized conversation to receive guidance on FMLA, PWFA, state paid leave, and employer leave policy options. At the same time, HR teams remain in the loop on all leave-related decisions.
