FOR EMPLOYEES
FOR ORGANIZATIONS
  • 66% of parents report difficulties in reconciling work and personal life with a child aged 0-3 years
  • 41% of parents feel that being helped to improve work-life balance has a big impact on how they view their employer
  • 80% of women have heard sexist remarks related to motherhood in the workplace, and 59% of men have heard sexist remarks related to fatherhood
  • Allows employees to work serenely By taking into consideration the daily problems they are confronted with, and by helping them to deal with them.
  • Promotes equal oppotunity between parents and non-parents By preventing parenthood from becoming a barrier to job fulfilment and career advancement.
  • Advances society and employee equality By promoting the inclusion of all parenthood paths, as well as gender equality.

Organizations have the power to make things happen
