Family Friendly Companies for Moms


Nowadays more and more women want to be part of the professional world, but also be with their children. Moreover an increasing number of male and female employees require time for child and (or) elder care.

All these people want to find that will allow to work on a reduced schedule. Also many employees want to establish a balance so they can enjoy their leisure time as well. So whether you want to spend more time with a your young children, take care of a sick parent, or pleasant leasure time, you should find a company that respects your priorities.

Let’s talk about what the family friendly company actually is. In simple words, it is an organization that helps its employees to manage the demands of both work and home.

We offer you some questions that you can ask during the interview.

1. First of all, ask what health benefits are offered.

· Does the company offer medical, dental and vision benefits?

· What about wellness? A small company may not be able to afford to build a state of the art fitness facility on its premises, but it probably can offer a YMCA membership.

· Are there any childcare resources?

· What about elder care?

If the company offers you all these benefits, then it is an indication that the company recognizes that you’ve got other concerns, and really wants to help you.
2. Then make that there are flexible schedules offered and used in the company you are going to choose. Look for telecommuting, flex time, job sharing or compressed workweeks. This is a tricky one, because while companies may offer these benefits, the culture may still be one where no one dares to use them. So again, I want to underline that you should make sure that they are really used. Ask, please, by how many people they are used? And in what positions?
3. Ask, whether the company offers individual solutions or not. Consistently working with employees to find solutions that address individual issues is an excellent sign of a family friendly company.
4. It is important to know is the culture results oriented. Is the emphasis on results or on time spent in the office?
5. And the last but not the list is the question: can your career still advance?

Before starting working, it is important to know, if you begin a flexible work schedule, can you still progress up the ladder at the same pace as someone who works a traditional schedule.

So try to observe all these five areas of what a company says it offers, really offers and what happens to employees who accept those offers carefully. Then you can get quite a good idea if a company will truly value you and your work life balance.
