Wayne-based Lluna, a people ops platform that launched in December, offers employees and their managers a centralized place to review and agree on personalized benefits, writes Paige Gross for Technical.ly Philly.

Lluna facilitates the engagement and retention of employees by enabling companies to offer workers benefits that best suit their lifestyle.

For example, an employer can offer potential employees a choice on how to manage their schedule: work 40 hours from Monday to Friday or work four 10-hour days instead.

This offers employees significantly more flexibility when starting a job, said Lluna founder Jessica Podgajny.

“Other than salary, which you might be able to negotiate, you usually get this standard list of benefits that isn’t personalized at all,” she said.

Although Podgajny conceptualized the platform before the pandemic, the global crisis has highlighted just how integral being able to personalize their work life is for employees.

Lluna is currently open as a pilot program to just a handful of companies in the range of 50 to 500 employees. When companies start considering how a return to the office will look like, Podgajny hopes it will prove to be an invaluable tool to many.
