It is our intention to create an environment where people can use all of their capabilities to support our business. Therefore, we encourage our employees to balance their work and personal responsibilities, through programs like the following:
Family Leaves
When you need time off to meet changing family responsibilities and respond to different life events, Family Leaves provide options and allow you time away from work without hurting your career or your benefits coverage. Family Leave is available to all full-time regular employees for maternity, paternity, adoption, or to deal with the serious illness of a parent or child. Benefits continue at the same level as they were prior to the leave. A commitment to return employees to the same or similar job of comparable pay and status is part of this program.
Employee and Family Assistance Program
The Employee and Family Assistance Program helps you manage your work/life responsibilities with practical advice, useful materials and local referrals. You can obtain personalized and confidential consultation with experienced counselors on topics such as:
- Parenting
- Education information and college planning
- Caring for adults, parents and older relatives
- Caring for yourself
- Career planning
Flexible Work Practices
Flexible Work Practices have been designed to help better balance the needs of both the business and the employee. We encourage the use of Flexible Work Practices because they can help employees juggle their personal obligations while managers try to seek a creative and productive means of meeting the business needs. With the help of your immediate supervisor, a variety of options can be assessed. |
