For the eighth year in a row, Pillsbury has been named to Working Mother's 100 Best Companies, which celebrates employers whose groundbreaking benefits—from flexible schedules and child care to innovative leave policies for new parents—are helping redefine workplace standards across the nation. Carol Evans, the president of Working Mother Media, said: “Working Mother 100 Best Companies are leaders in building initiatives that truly support all employees. They are the vanguard of successful companies, with modern policies for American families.”
Pillsbury is just one of five national law firms to make the list. To determine who is selected, companies complete an extensive questionnaire on workforce representation, child care, flexibility programs, leave policies and more. It surveys the availability, usage and tracking of programs, as well as the accountability of managers who oversee them. For this year’s Working Mother 100 Best Companies, particular weight was given to flexible work arrangements, women’s advancement programs and paid maternity leave.
The 100 Best Companies are featured in the October/November issue of Working Mother and on www.workingmother.com.
