A new survey shows more than half of Canadian employers still do not offer fertility benefits, and of those that do less than two per cent cover both drugs and treatment costs.

Roughly one in six couples in Canada experience infertility, a number that the Public Health Agency of Canada says has doubled since the 1980s. Some of the country's largest corporations are starting to provide coverage for procedures like IVF, thanks to pressure from employees and a competitive labour market.
