People rely on their phones to find work. That’s why we created a program to cover you if you experience layoffs or other work hardships.
We use the power of connection to help people thrive in their careers while staying true to their most authentic selves.
Layoffs and work hardships can happen. And if you’re affected, Connection Protection provides 3 months of service covered by Visible to help in your search for a new job.¹
With our partners at Empower Work, we’ll also provide mentoring and resources for those undergoing work hardship.

Connection Protection is available for existing Visible members on monthly plans. You must have completed your first monthly service payment in order to apply for the program. See if you qualify here.
