"A degree of flexibility is table stakes for employers that want to recruit and retain women today, experts say—but that’s far from all they need to do. Among the other top 10 family-friendly benefits that Best Place for Working Parents® companies deploy are parental leave, benefits for nursing parents and back-up childcare. While just 11% have an on-site childcare facility, this is a benefit the organization expects to see grow among employers on the leading edge. Since 2019, the number of surveyed organizations that offer on-site childcare has grown 47%—and they have a retention rate that is 7.4 times that of those without childcare facilities. “We anticipate that policies, perks and benefits being implemented today are here to stay, as these have been proven to yield economic benefits for companies,” Funk says. Family-friendly benefits were a key factor in Progyny’s ability to grow its headcount by more than 40% over the last year, says Pratt." https://lnkd.in/g2xC7vZ7
