# V2 Wellness Budget

The wellness budget covers preventative support, recovery, ergonomics, and
team-wide pauses that keep production sustainable.

## Annual Stipend

Each employee receives an annual wellness stipend for gym membership,
counseling, ergonomic equipment, mobility support, accessibility equipment,
caregiver support, or other approved wellness needs. Contractors with recurring
production access receive either direct reimbursement or equivalent vendor
coverage.

## Quarterly Wellness Day

The studio schedules a quarterly wellness day with no meetings, no shipping
pressure, no release review, and no routine production asks. Only designated
live-ops and privacy/security incident on-call coverage remains active.

## Administration

The stipend is administered by HR/people operations. Usage is private except for
aggregate budget planning and fraud prevention. Managers cannot request
individual purchase details unless the employee asks for accommodation support.

## Review

HR, finance, accessibility, and the wellness delegate review stipend amount,
eligible categories, uptake, and regional equity every quarter.
