Companies that offer and encourage parental leave see a 10 to 15 percent increase in retention and employee engagement. Let's unravel the madness behind this genius: It's no secret that balanced employees are happier and more productive. Yet, balancing work with family is a significant challenge – I bet you know one or two parents who chose family over work. So, by supporting parents in your workforce, you: · Demonstrate that you value their well-being. · Show a commitment to employee needs. This creates a positive workplace culture that attracts top talent and increases job satisfaction and loyalty. A strategic move, if you must, that significantly distinguishes your company as an employer of choice, directly impacting your retention rates. It also gives you a competitive advantage, as only 27% of U.S. workers currently have access to paid family leave. Big question: how do you encourage your employees to spend time with their families? Address their Needs at Every Stage. This can look like offering: · Flexible Working Hours · Remote Work Options · Generous Paid Family Leave Policies · Support for Childcare and Elder Care to Relieve parent Stressors · Paid Time Off (PTO) – encourage it! · Family-Friendly Workplace Events · A Results-Oriented Work Environment · Education and Awareness Seminars/Training Lead by Example! Your management should model family-friendly behavior by utilizing these policies themselves. When leadership demonstrates that family time is a priority, it sets a tone for the rest of the organization. In summary, lead with compassion and foresight, implement a more robust parental leave policy, and significantly influence your company's future.

How workplaces can foster positive attitudes towards paid parental leave It is important for workplaces to cultivate a supportive culture for parental leave, an area where many organizations still lag. Here are suggestions for 3 stages to create a supportive environment: 1. Before leave: Establish clear succession plans, written instructions, and communication preferences for the employee on leave. 2. During leave: Employees should avoid work requests and communicate any changes before their return. 3. Returning to work: A gradual return is recommended, including one-on-one meetings, assigning a "transition buddy," scheduling return on a Thursday for a smoother transition, and easing back into full workload during the first week. It's about creating a culture that embraces and supports employees during the parental leave journey.

You may have heard us say before - parental leave is a “Love ‘em and leave ‘em” moment. From the moment an employee starts thinking about telling their manager about their leave, the relationship between employer and employee either gets stronger or starts to disintegrate. At LUMO, we help clients everyday and every step of the way to make this an empowering transition where both the working parent-to-be and their team have better outcomes before, during, and after their leave. And in this piece for Fast Company, our Co-Founder and CEO Sarah Bernier Olin, PCC Olin lays out some of the key foundational practices to make this transition supportive and successful for all parties. Take a read, and let us know - how are you equipping your managers to support employee parental leave? Policies matter, but execution, implementation and employee experience are where the rubber meets the road. Policies are table stakes in a competitive market - companies must truly support their parental workforce in order to win the war on talent. Are these policies you already have in place? Is your culture supporting it? Or is there more you need to start implementing to keep this a “love’em” instead of a “leave’em” moment? We’re here to help.
