Zscaler Employee Benefits
HEALTH
At Zscaler, supporting the health and well-being of our 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.
Medical Plans: Health is a large and broad component of wellness. You can rest easy with comprehensive insurance coverage and top-ups for you and your loved ones. This policy includes coverage for parents and parents-in-law, psychiatric or psychological treatment, neurodiverse conditions, and congenital conditions.
Virtual Primary Care: Access care when you need it. Schedule up to 15 yearly virtual consultations with a doctor, 24/7, across 23 specializations.
Annual Health Check: Annual health checks are available for all onsite employees.
Family Planning & Support: For employees who are on a parenting journey, support is available at every stage—from preconception through pregnancy to early childhood. We offer comprehensive maternity coverage under our medical insurance plan, which includes higher limits for multiple births, coverage for infertility treatment, and well-baby expenses.
Employees who are parents (regardless of role) also receive paid parental leave. Learn more about parental leave below under the Work-Life Balance and Time Off section.
All female employees and single parents with children under 6 years of age are eligible to claim reimbursement of creche/daycare expenses. Learn more about our childcare reimbursement benefit under the Additional Benefits and Discounts section.

Zscaler provides basic life and accident insurance to protect you and your family in case of death or serious injury. Zscaler pays for the full cost of this coverage.
Work-Life Blend and Time Off
Our hybrid working arrangements, paid 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.
The global Zscaler workforce operates on a hybrid model, working from offices and homes around the world for meetings and community-building activities that encourage connection and productivity. Our approach balances individual work styles with best practices to build trust and collaboration—all in support of personal productivity and organizational success. We strive to create an environment that enables everyone to contribute.
Zscaler supports work-life flexibility, and we encourage you to take the time off you need. Making time to rest, recharge, and prioritize wellness helps all of us to be our best and contributes to a high-performing culture. Employees have access to earned, casual, and sick paid leave, plus special leaves during big life moments.
