Overview
Our benefits program is one of the key ways we support you
You should see yourself reflected in your workplace benefits, with the support you need to effectively manage the many dimensions of your life. We proudly offer comprehensive and inclusive benefits to meet the diverse needs of our employees and their families.
HEALTH
Supporting the health and well-being of employees and their families is a top priority. Excellent health coverage encompasses much more than sick care–it includes resources for mental health, support for complex and chronic conditions, and benefits to help grow and care for your family.
We recognize that health is a large and broad component of wellness which starts with proper medical care. Zscaler provides medical insurance for you and your family through Bupa, which includes a wide range of support ranging from hospitalization, outpatient services, maternity care, preventive care, and physical therapy in private and public hospitals across Australia. Premiums are fully paid for by Zscaler.
Virtual Primary Care: Bupa’s Blua digital health program provides 24/7 access to video calls with online doctors in a range of languages for round-the-clock help with common health issues and prescription needs.
Family Planning & Support: Employees receive paid parental leave, and Zscaler offers a lump-sum allowance when your baby is born. Learn more about parental leave in the Work-Life Balance and Time Off section of this page.
Employees are encouraged to take advantage of mental health services and wellness programs that include: 24/7 access to the Telus confidential Employee Assistance Program; free access to the Calm meditation app; and annual skin cancer screening.
Protect dental health for you and your family through the Bupa Extras plan. Coverage includes oral examinations, tooth extraction, scaling, dentures, orthodontics, and more. Premiums are fully paid for by Zscaler.
Your vision checkups and hardware needs are covered through the Bupa Extras plan. Premiums are fully paid for by Zscaler.
Financial
We understand that financial security is a cornerstone of overall well-being. Our broad range of benefits is designed to help you manage your financial security and save for your future.
The Zscaler stock program offers Restricted Stock Units (RSU) and an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) allowing you to invest in Zscaler’s future and share in the company’s success.
- RSUs are granted by the company to eligible employees on an individual basis as deemed appropriate.
- ESPP offers employees an opportunity to purchase Zscaler stock at a minimum 15% discount through payroll deduction twice a year.
We're committed to helping you build a secure financial future. Zscaler contributes 12% of your eligible compensation to your nominated superannuation fund. You have the option to choose your preferred super fund or use Zscaler’s default fund.
Life and Total Permanent Disability: Zscaler provides basic life insurance and total permanent disability benefits to protect you and your family in case of death or serious injury. Zscaler pays for the full cost of this coverage for employees.
Salary Continuance: Zscaler provides salary continuance benefit in case you are unable to work due to illness or injury. Zscaler pays for the full cost of this coverage for employees.
To support transportation needs, employees can choose to lease a car or electric bike through a tax-efficient salary packaging model, giving more flexibility and cost-effective choices.

Our hybrid working arrangements, time off policy, parental leave options, and access to our Employee Assistance Program are a few of the ways we help our team members maintain a happier and healthier work-life experience
