And their moment is now. We're creating a future of work that works for everyone. Smart companies know the truth: That moms take care of business and beyond. That no two careers look the same. That parenting skills sharpen business skills. We know that when mom thrives, families thrive, business thrives, society thrives...and things change for the better.

In a recent article from Fast Company, author Christina Gnozzo researched dozens of businesses and reports, and talked with employees who have been impacted by #parentalleave policies. She found that the most competitive policies have these three things in common: ☑ Flexibility, including back to work policies and a culture that supports working parents’ schedules ☑ Covered Salary, the most competitive policies include 100% base salary ☑ A plan in place for parents and teams impacted by leave (Link to full article in comments!)

Today, in an OpEd for The New York Times, the US Surgeon General warned of the extreme stress and mental health challenges American parents are facing – including loneliness, workplace wellbeing, and the impact of social media on our kids. What needs to change? “It begins with fundamentally shifting how we value parenting, recognizing that the work of raising a child is crucial to the health and well-being of all society.” That includes affordable childcare options, paid leave, workplace flexibility, and workplace leadership that understands the demands on parents. Let’s continue to work together to build workplaces that WORK for all parents! Full article linked in comments.

104 years ago, the 19th Amendment passed - granting voting rights to some women. A push forward, but we also acknowledge that all women weren’t granted the same privilege. At The Mom Project, we’re striving to pave a way forward to ensure the equity of moms and women in the workforce and beyond. 🇺🇸 To celebrate #WomensEqualityDay, make sure you are registered to vote (or pass this along to a friend!).

Work friends: May we know them, may we be them, and may we advocate for them. According to recent LinkedIn research: Over half of U.S. workers have a friend at work, but women are slightly more likely to have one than men (56% versus 50%). Women are also more likely than men to say that they “need” a close friend at work: 42%, compared to 34%. 💙 Tag your work bestie(s) in the comments! Read more from Scary Mommy ⤵
