Overview

Relationship breakdown has a huge impact on employees. Many suffer in silence due to the difficulty around discussing relationships at work.

Of those going through separation, 90% said it affected their work performance. Ultimately, 1 in 10 leave their job due to related stress and lack of workplace support.

Powered by Octopus Group, amicable is a free-to-employer benefit that gives employees discreet, compassionate guidance during separation. We aim to minimise the impact on the individual, limiting workplace disruption and supporting talent retention.

​

How does it work?

We help couples who are married or cohabiting in England & Wales, with or without children. We support with the legal, financial, and other practical aspect of separation, such as co-parenting or co-petting.

We work with both members of the couple, helping them navigate the transition as a team, without solicitors. Our unique approach reduces conflict and ensures kinder, more affordable outcomes.

At no cost to employers, we can offer the following perks to employees:

1) Free separation guidance

Employees can benefit from free, 30-minute consultations, with or without their partner. During, we ask them about their circumstances, they get to ask questions, and get initial guidance from a Specialist.

2) A 5% discount on services

Should they wish to continue with one of our paid services, they can benefit from a 5% discount.

3) Access to helpful content, resources, and tools

Whether they’re in the early or more advanced stages of their separation, helpful resources and tools are available through free 90-day trials for the following:

• amicable’s co-parenting planner: helping separated parents manage childcare responsibilities, including features like a shared calendar, expense management, and more.
• amicable space: a personalised content library with useful content and tools tailored to the current stage of your separation: articles, podcasts, webinars, a community forum, and more.
