Best Place for Working Parents 2024!

We are pleased to announce that Social Factor has earned the Best Place for Working Parents designation for the fourth year in a row! We’re proud of the many parents who have chosen to work for us and will continue implementing new ways to support our working parents. Social Factor strives to provide an environment that is supportive to all and to be the best partner we can be for everyone who walks through our doors.

What is Best Place for Working Parents?

Best Place for Working Parents is a designation given to businesses with policies that make it more attainable to both be a parent and have a career. It’s the idea that people shouldn’t have to choose. Businesses with this designation provide services, benefits, and incentives that allow working parents to enjoy time with their children while also maintaining a career.

Why does it matter?

The following information can be found on the Best Place for Working Parents website, along with case studies exploring why each benefit provides better outcomes for businesses that employ them. 

• Compared to their competitors, great workplaces win when it comes to revenue growth, employee retention, productivity, innovation, resilience, agility, customer service, and employee engagement.
• 83% of millennials will leave one job for another with stronger family policies and better family support.
• Research from Fortune shows that the publicly-held companies that appear on the *Fortune 100 Best Companies [to work for] list have delivered stock market returns 2x to 3x greater than major stock indices.

THE BOTTOM LINE: WHY FOCUS ON FAMILY-FRIENDLY?

More than 15 million U.S. workers have quit their jobs since April 2021 — and 45% percent of those surveyed said needing to take care of family was a key factor in their decision.

What initiatives does Social Factor provide that support this designation?

Social Factor is a remote-first agency with employees across the United States and a few abroad. We provide company-paid healthcare coverage with reasonable rates for families and the ability to quickly change coverage as the family structure changes. Our unlimited paid time off policy gives parents opportunities to take care of the daily needs of their children while still allowing time for vacations, out-of-town visitors, or whatever their family needs to thrive. As a remote-first agency, all of our work is done remotely, which affords more parent/child bonding time during those crucial first years.

We are grateful for our working parents who have chosen Social Factor, and we will continue to find new ways to support all of our employees as we help provide the best work/life balance possible.
