Is Your Workplace Family Forward? (Cary Chamber of Commerce)
Families have changed, but workplaces haven’t. 75% of US mothers and 50% of US fathers say they’ve passed up work opportunities, switched jobs, or quit to care for their children. The North Carolina Early Childhood Foundation has created a certification that designates employers that offer policies and practices that support the health and well-being of working families and children. By becoming a Family Forward NC Certified Employer, you show potential employees, customers, and stakeholders that you care about working families and children.
Join us as we hear from Lisa Filnaldi as she discusses the statistics and process of becoming a Family Forward NC Certified Employer to improve workplace productivity, recruitment and retention; grow a strong economy; and support children’s healthy development.
