Alongside salary, Kohl’s provides a comprehensive suite of benefits tailored to both part-time and full-time employees. These benefits include generous paid time off options, parental leave, extensive health and wellness programs such as medical, dental, and vision coverage, and various disability plans. Savings and retirement plans including a 401(k) program and flexible spending accounts further support associates' financial planning. Insurance products extend coverage to associates and their families, including life insurance and unique pet insurance options. Additional legal and adoption assistance programs provide valuable support through significant life events.
