Notable Father-Friendly Policies And Practices
- In addition to the week of paid paternity leave, Zoetis provides up to 6 months of unpaid leave. If you’re not sure you can swing that financially, remember that most of those 6 months will be spent on the carpet making gurgling noises and laughing, which doesn’t cost much.
- Fifty five-percent of Zoetis’ executive team are women and, as of 2014, 4 of those 6 women were raising kids. That leads to a corporate culture that respects the demands of the working parent.
