Workplace Options offers work-life and employee support benefits packages to businesses.

At Workplace Options, philanthropy starts from the top down. The CEO recently purchased two condominiums and company cars for the remote workers who travel to the company's Raleigh headquarters one week out of each month. The staff has also adopted a shelter for abused and homeless women; employees have donated more than $11,000, which their employer matched.
