Joins growing list of businesses nationwide proving that family-friendly is good for employees AND the bottom line

GILSUM, NH, UNITED STATES, September 26, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- W.S. Badger Co., a legacy indie brand making radically simple organic and natural body care since 1995, announced today that it has earned a 2024 Best Place for Working Parents^® designation in recognition of its commitment to supporting parents through family-friendly policies and practices.

The Best Place for Working Parents^® is a growing national movement of business leaders proving that family-friendly is business-friendly. Through a first-of-its-kind online business self-assessment, qualifying organizations across the country can earn the competitive designation, which recognizes innovation across the top 10 research-backed, family-friendly policies proven to benefit working parents AND employers’ bottom line.

Badger’s forward-thinking company culture results from its founding mission and principles, designed to create (and sustain) a respectful and supportive environment for all employees. Many of its unique and employee-centered practices—extended paid parental leave, free organic lunches served daily, a nearly two-decade-old Babies at Work program that has welcomed over 30 babies, and more—result from employee feedback.

“We believe that happy employees make for a happier, healthier workplace, and receiving this designation is both an honor and a validation of our efforts,” said Emily Hall Warren, Badger’s Director of People & Culture. “It’s gratifying to see the data catching up with best-in-the-field practices, proving that worker-centered policies lead to higher retention, productivity, innovation, agility, and employee engagement.”
