Notable Father-Friendly Policies And Practices
- The federal Family Medical Leave Act requires companies with more than 50 employees to provide them 12 weeks of unpaid leave for anything from the birth of a kid to the illness of a parent. WellStar allows for another 24 weeks on top of that, which is a whole lot of job security when you need it most.
- On on-site concierge service is tasked with making sure family time-sucking errands like car service, holiday gift buying, and dry cleaning are handled for you so your free time is actually free.
- With adoption assistance up to $20,000, WellStar ensures adopting families have as much support as other employee families.
