Andersen Named One of America's Greatest Workplaces for Parents & Families
Andersen Corporation has been recognized as one of 2023 America's Greatest Workplaces for Parents & Families by Newsweek, in the Energy, Resources and Industrials category.
"We are honored to be recognized by Newsweek and this award is a testament to our dedication to fostering a workplace where all families can thrive. At Andersen, we believe that families come in all forms and we are committed to creating an inclusive and supportive environment that recognizes and celebrates the diverse needs of our employees and their families," says Chris Galvin, president and CEO, Andersen Corporation.
About the ranking
Newsweek's ranking identified the top 800 companies in the U.S. for parents, single parents and families. The list is based on a large employer survey and a sample set of over 36,000 respondents who are parents/single parents working in the U.S. for companies that have at least 1,000 employees. The study collected, in total, over 224,000 company reviews of companies in the U.S. across all industry sectors.
Andersen's efforts
In 2022, Andersen expanded benefits eligibility to same- and different-gender domestic partners and their children. Additionally, the company updated its parental leave to include added flexibility, offering employees the ability to take their paid parental leave in one-week increments versus requiring employees to use it all at once.
What Newsweek says
"A workplace that supports parents and families is beneficial to everyone. Employees at companies with flexible working hours, parental leave, childcare support and eldercare assistance are less likely to feel overwhelmed with family responsibilities. Newsweek and market-data research firm Plant-A Insights are proud to introduce 'America's Greatest Workplaces for Parents & Families 2023,' highlighting companies that are lauded by their employees as great places to work," says Nancy Cooper, global editor in chief, Newsweek.
